Testing and Optimsation of Medical Examination and Surgical Gloves

University of Sheffield Department of Mechanical Engineering
Very few standard tests exist for assessing the impact on glover wearers’ touch and feel, decterity, hand fatigue etc. A greater understanding of these is becoming important as glove materials change away from the traditional Latex (for allergy reasons). Read more
