Surface Powders on Surgical Gloves
Archives of Surgery, 1980Four different instrumental techniques were used to analyze the microscopic particles on the patient-contact surfaces of a variety of surgical gloves. The presence of talc was confirmed on most, but not all, gloves tested. The presence of talc, when it occurred, seemed to be due to design by the manufacturer rather than by accident, and it was ...
