The Cufitec Surgical Mask is a single-use, disposable surgical mask to cover the nose and mouth of the wearer to protect from the transfer of microorganisms, body fluids and has an anti-influenza agent (active ingredient: Cul at 0.5% wt. concentration) on the outer and inner mask layers. The Cufitec Surgical Mask inactivates 99.90% of the following influenza viruses on five minutes contact with the surface of the facemask in laboratory (in vitro) tests against the following influenza viruses: Influenza A/H1N1: A/WS/33, A/Virginia/ATCC2/2009; Influenza A/H3N2: A/Kitakyusyu/159/93, A/Udorn/307/72, A/Hong Kong/8/68, A/Victoria/210/09, A/Virginia/ ATCC6/2012; Influenza B: B/Lee/40, B/Taiwan/2/62; under tested contact conditions.

The Cufitec® Surgical Mask is a single-use, disposable device, provided non-sterile, and is intended to cover the nose and mouth of the wearer to protect from the transfer of microorganisms, body fluids, and particulates and has an added anti-influenza agent which inactivates specific pathogens under specified contact conditions. The mask is comprised of four layers of materials: rayon layers with added anti-influenza coating (outer and inner layers) and polypropylene layers (two middle layers). All of the construction materials used in this device are commonly used in the construction of surgical facemasks used in current legally marketed devices. The inner and outer layers are coated with an anti-influenza agent (CuI, 0.5% wt.), which inactivates influenza viruses under tested contact conditions using the same mechanism of action. Masks are held in place on the wearer with ear loops (polyurethane and nylon) and contains a malleable polyethylene nosepiece strip to conform to the wearer's face.
