Mine is a 3M witha VOC cartreidge. It is made especially to trap voc's

we used them in the cadaver lab ar med school.

if it is not rated for voc then you will not benefit from it

Angel, would you mind giving the specifics on the mask that you use

and where you buy it? My daughter is on her way to medical school and

this is one of our big concerns--how she will survive anatomy lab.

Thanks,

Can't remember if I answered this or not...so I will proceed as if I

hadn't.

I got mine years ago at HOme Depot it's a 3M 1/2 face VOC mask with 2

round canisters.

They from WHAT I have been told are not making the type I have.

According to their site

http://multimedia.mmm.com/mws/mediawebserver.dyn?6666660Zjcf6lVs6EVs6662c0COrrrr\

Q-

On page 6 are the various canisters/cartridges to buy. If I was going to

go back into a cadaver lab, I would go for the cartridges that are both

VOC and formaldehyde. THe actual units I am not familiar with regarding

comfort fit etc. BUt they do need to offgass if you are sensitive. If

you offgass it, DO NOT have the cartridges in them, as the circulating air

will casue them to be less effective when first using them.

When they are not using the masks they should be in a bag of some kind to

keep as I stated above so that they are no exposed to air.

When I was in med school I was changing cartridges every 2 weeks as I

wanted to make sure they were effective. Too bad I didn't wear my mask

constantly I probably would not be as sick as I am now.
