Read the full statement (254 words)

The BioFriendTM BioMaskTM surgical facemasks are single use disposable devices with a hydrophilic plastic coating on the outer layer (active ingredient: citric acid 2% w/w, a pH lowering agent), and a second inner layer treated with metal ions (active ingredients: copper 1.6% w/w and zinc 1.6% w/w, which form ionic bonds with negatively-charged side-groups on influenza viruses).

The BioFriendTM BioMaskTM surgical facemasks inactivate 99.99% of Influenza viruses on five minutes contact with the surface of the facemask in laboratory (in vitro) tests against the following seasonal, pandemic, avian, swine and equine influenza viruses: influenza A subtypes and strains: HiNi (the 2009 pandemnic flu subtype N/California/07/09, A/Brisbane/59/2007, A/Wisconsin/i 0/98, A/New Jersey/8/76, A/PR/8/38), H3N2 (A/Brisbane/i 0/2007,A/Wisconsin/67/2005,), H2N2 (A/2/JAPAN/305/57); the bird flu subtypes: H5N1 (NIBRG-14), H9N2 (AfTurkeyWisconsin/1966), H5N2 (A/Duck/PA/10218/84); the swine flu subtype: HiNi (A/Swine/1976/31); the equine flu subtype: H3N8 (N/Equine/2/Miami/63); and Influenza B strains: (B/Florida/4/2006, B/Lee/40), under tested contact conditions. Correlation between in vitro testing results and any clinical event has not been tested.

There are two models: (1) Universal (BF-200-2001 A) - a standard flat mask with pleats; (2) Premium (BF-200-301 3A) - flat-folded and expanding into a convex-shaped mask with ear adjusters and an anti-fog nose flap. No clinical studies have been conducted comparing the ability of an untreated facemask and these facemasks to protect the wearer from Influenza infection. They are intended to be worn by operating room personnel during surgical procedures, to protect both the surgical patient, and the operating room personnel, from the transfer of microorganisms, body fluids and particulate material.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
