Fluorescein dye evaluation of glove integrity



JN Katz, JP Gobetti, and C Shipman Jr
School of Dentistry, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor 48109-1078.

Several methods of defect detection in disposable latex and vinyl examination gloves were evaluated. Results of this research support other findings that glove integrity cannot be completely assured by the use of new gloves. The use of the fluorescein dye technique was superior, in terms of efficiency and accuracy in the clinical setting, when compared with other methods of defect detection, including the air inflation-water submersion technique.
