Surgical gloves have more precise sizing with a better precision and sensitivity and are made to a higher standard.Besides medicine, medical gloves are widely used in chemical and biochemical laboratories. Medical gloves offer some basic protection against corrosives and surface contaminationMedical gloves are recommended to be worn for two main reasons:[4]
To reduce the risk of contamination of health-care workers hands with blood and other body fluids.
To reduce the risk of germ dissemination to the environment and of transmission from the health-care worker to the patient and vice versa, as well as from one patient to another.
Powdered gloves
To facilitate donning of gloves, powders have been used as lubricants. Early powders derived from pines or club moss were found to be toxic.[24] Talcum powder was used for decades but linked to postoperative granuloma and scar formation. Corn starch, another agent used as lubricant, was also found to have potential side effects such as inflammatory reactions and granuloma and scar formation.
