DESAVO face masks have been tested by NPPTL (The National Personal Protective Technology Laboratory), the NIOSH laboratory that operates within the CDC to conduct scientific research, develop guidance and authoritative recommendations, and disseminate information to help prevent disease, injury, and death for millions of working men and women relying on equipment tested. DESAVO is not an N95 mask (also known as a filtering facepiece respirator), and it is not NIOSH-approved.
The complete NPPTL Assessment for DESAVO may be found on the CDC Website here; for ease of reference, see the PDF below:
DESAVO is being marketed as a face mask under the Emergency Use Authorization for use as source control by the general public as well as by HCP in healthcare settings as to help prevent the spread of infection or illness during the COVID-19 pandemic. It is not an N95 mask (also known as a filtering facepiece respirator), and it is not NIOSH-approved.

NELSON LABS TESTING
PURE-MSK surgical masks have been tested by an independent third-party, Nelson Labs, a leading U.S. provider of microbiological and analytical lab testing. Nelson Laboratories performs specific testing to assess the performance of materials and products, and it does not make claims about the overall safety and efficacy of a product. See full reports below:
PURE-MSK is FDA 510(k)-cleared for use as a surgical mask to provide a physical barrier to fluids and particulate materials. It is intended to be worn by operating room personnel during surgical procedures to protect both the surgical patient and the operating room personnel from transfer of microorganisms, body fluids, and particulate matter.
