Prusament PLA / PETG particle release

Hi, I couldn't find a forum for Prusament.

Are there any measurements of the amount of particles released from the MK3S when printing using the Prusament PLA or PETG filaments?  Apparently the quality of the filament affects the amount of particles released and thus the health risks and the need for ventilation.

You could make a filter, carbon like kitchen filter and a vacuum cleaner filter, but this does not get all the particles.

Better is to suck air out of the printer enclosure , and blow it outside of your house, or leave the printer alone in a room.
