P100s recommended on planes / in crowded areas:
10. My first recommendation for P100 elastomerics is the@DentecSafety Comfort-Air NxMD (review coming). The GVS Ellipse P100 is popular. The Dräger X-plore 2100 is cost-effective. The 3M 6000 is widely available. The Sundström SR100 has a high pass-rateLink: CleanAirCrew
