Five characteristics of laboratory medical rubber examination gloves
1. Gloves are required to provide isolation and protection
In various experiments, volunteers need to frequently come into contact with various living organisms or reagents, such as dissecting mice, to establish biological models; Or cultivate various bacterial organisms to express proteins and extract plasmids; Or come into contact with chemical reagents to dispense the required reagents, etc. In these operational processes, it is necessary to use gloves with superior isolation function to maintain the hand safety of laboratory personnel.
2. Gloves need to be resistant to certain chemical corrosion
In the laboratory, especially in the chemistry laboratory, many chemical reagents have a certain degree of corrosiveness, which can cause soothing and harmful effects on the skin. So, the gloves of laboratory personnel must have a certain degree of corrosion resistance to ensure the safety of the group.
The types of gloves on the market are single, and it is not recommended to use PVC, latex, or PE gloves in chemical laboratories.
3. Gloves are puncture resistant and tear resistant
There are many glassware items in the laboratory, and if the glassware is damaged during assembly or disassembly, it is easy to scratch hands. Wearing a pair of puncture resistant and tear resistant protective gloves creates a protective barrier between fragile skin and reinforced glass. Even when dealing with broken glass, there is no need to worry about hand scratches, avoiding subsequent wound infections and other complications.
4. Gloves should ensure hand sensitivity and agility
Experimenters often come into contact with various precision and coarse instruments. If gloves cannot guarantee the sensitivity and agility of the hands, it will affect the efficiency of the experiment and even lead to significant errors in the experimental results.
5. Gloves should provide grip strength
Glassware and most experimental equipment have smooth surfaces that are not easy to grip. Choosing gloves with full hemp surface, palm hemp or fingertip hemp can handle the results in one go. Gloves with hemp surface can provide good grip strength, prevent instruments from slipping, and cause unnecessary losses or personnel injuries.
