Nitrile exam gloves are an excellent alternative to latex gloves. Made of a durable, flexiblle synthetic fiber, nitrile gloves provide excellent tear resistance and dexterity. A nitrile glove also features better chemical resistance than other disposable gloves. A selection of nitrile exam gloves are availble for a variety of safety and professional needs, each with different features and advantages. They are particularly beneficial to those who have experienced allergic reactions or irritation from the use of latex and natural rubber. Nitrile gloves are available in an array of colors and thicknesses, as well as sizes to ensure the most comfortable fit.

Wearing nitrile gloves is an occupational health and safety requirement for many professionals who come into contact with chemicals, solvents, bodily fluids, and other hazardous substances. Correct use of protective equipment like nitrile gloves and adherence to health and safety policies can help protect the wearer from exposure to hazards, and prevent the spread of contamination and transmission of pathogens by creating a secure barrier. “Exam grade," nitrile gloves require a statement of FDA approval. This approval is bestowed on nitrile gloves that are proven to reach requisite quality levels, and exhibit required strength and material stretch.

Exam grade nitrile gloves can be used in medical or allied professions where a quality, but not necessarily sterile safety glove is required. If sterility is required, purchase individually packaged, sterile, single use nitrile gloves. Industrial grade gloves are usually thicker and have less dexterity. This kind of nitrile glove is better suited to industrial, mechanical, or food service applications. These gloves protect the wearer from exposure to acids, bases, solvents, esters, grease and animal fats, and when used in accordance with safety regulations, also prevent the transmission of hazardous substances. As this kind of nitrile glove allows less freedom of movement, it is less suitable for professions requiring fine motor skills and delicate movement, however industrial grade nitrile gloves are thinner than neoprene gloves, and a better alternative for applications requiring controlled machine use.

Nitrile exam gloves have the additional benefit of not being an allergen, an issue that has been reported from the use of latex gloves, especially by those frequently required to wear gloves, or wear gloves for long periods. Latex allergy is further exacerbated by the use of powder in conjunction with latex, and use of latex gloves on already wet hands. In order to protect wearers of all types of plastic gloves, the use of barrier creams and moisturizers is recommended to prevent skin drying as a result of frequent glove wearing and hand washing that can lead to skin irritation. Nitrile gloves are made from a special polymer characterized by impressive chemical and tear resistance and are more suitable for use with medical sharps than latex. Nitrile gloves have additional features and options including textured fingertips for advanced control, non-slip grips for work with liquids, contoured palms for better fit, and interlock cotton liners for added strength, comfort and durability. Available in a range of sizes and thicknesses and available in bulk packs, disposable nitrile exam gloves are an excellent choice for comfort and safety.
