Definition from
Wikipedia:
Bacterial Filtration Efficiency or BFE is a measurement of a respirator material's resistance to penetration of bacteria. Results are reported as percent efficiency and correlate with the ability of the fabric to resist bacterial penetration. Higher numbers in this test indicate better barrier efficiency. Wrap fabrics were compared based on grade as well as basis weight
Example sentences:
According to the brand, the filters were found to provide “higher than 95% Bacterial Filtration Efficiency,” meaning they successfully stop most particles from getting in or out. A pack of 10 filters costs $20. (People)
NSafe mask has 99.2% bacterial filtration efficiency (at 3 microns) and complies with ASTM standards of breathability and splash resistance, IIT-Delhi said in a statement. (Outlook India)
While the Closca Mask itself is a non-medical grade mask, it is made from high-grade materials. The filters have been made in Spain following official regulations (EN 14683: 2019 + AC: 2019 type 2). The mask itself has a 98% bacterial filtration efficiency (BFE). (Goosed)

كفاءة الترشيح البكتيري
Definition from
eurolab:
كفاءة الترشيح البكتيري أو BFE هي مقياس لمقاومة المواد لاختراق البكتيريا
Example sentences:
عملت لجنة التقييس الأوروبية (CEN) ونشرت معيارًا لمواءمة متطلبات اختبار كفاءة الترشيح البكتيري (BFE) لأقنعة الوجه الطبية (eurolab)
يقيس BFE (كفاءة الترشيح البكتيري) مدى جودة ترشيح القناع للبكتيريا عند التعامل مع الهباء الجرثومي. يشار إلى اختبار ASTM بحجم قطري 3.0 ميكرون يحتوي على المكورات العنقودية ، ويمكن أن يكون متوسط الحجم 0.6-0.8 ميكرو (laboratuar)
