Potential Exposure of Hands Inside Protective Gloves-a Summary of Data from Non-Agricultural Pesticide Surveys

摘要

The results of individual surveys are compared and general observations are made about the protective nature of protective gloves. A total of 190 measurements of contamination by involatile components of pesticide products were made inside the gloves. Protective gloves were nearly always found to be contaminated inside, except for public hygiene insecticide uses. Disposable gloves were sometimes used when applying public hygiene insecticides, while gloves worn for other applications were normally re-used.
