Does any evidence address airborne allergens released from captured material during handling or replacement?

The label sets how a used filter is handled, and the company publishes no measurement of what comes off a filter while it is handled.

The label states: “A used filter holds the dust and microorganisms it has taken out of the air. Wear gloves, and eye protection and a dust mask where dust is heavy. Put the used filter straight into a bag or waste container. Do not shake it out or blow it clean. Wash hands after handling.” It also instructs that the system be switched off at the thermostat or at the unit’s disconnect before the filter access is opened. NanoFlashing™ is a technology; the name, rating and sale of a product that carries it are set by that product's maker and seller.
