3M Face Fit Testing Solutions (Sensitivity and Fit)

• Sweet or bitter test solutions for fit testing masks
• Sensitivity solution for Part 1 (Taste Test)
• Test Solution for Part 2 (Fit Test)
• Two solution options as a small percentage of the population cannot detect one of the options
• Sweet: solution of sodium saccharin that produces a sweet tasting aerosol
• Bitter: solution of denatonium benzoate to produce a bitter aerosol

Replacement sensitivity and fit test solutions for use with 3M™ Qualitative Fit Test Apparatus Kits FT-10 (Sweet) and FT-30 (Bitter). The choice between the bitter and sweet test kit is a personal one, however a small percentage of the population are unable to detect saccharin in which case the bitter test must be used.
