To characterise the distribution of particle size and mass of glove powder aerosol released from powdered and powder free non-sterile latex gloves under controlled conditions.
Gravimetric sampling and aerodynamic particle size analysis were performed during simulated use of gloves on a prosthetic hand in a chamber designed to minimise background particle concentrations.
Aerosol was detectable for both powdered and powder free gloves under both aggressive and non-aggressive handling conditions. Most of the particles detected had aerodynamic diameter less than 10 microm.
Powder free gloves were not entirely free of powder aerosol. Particles from both powdered and powder free gloves are sufficiently fine to penetrate into the thoracic region of the respiratory tract.
在可控条件下，对有粉和无粉非无菌乳胶手套释放的手套粉末气溶胶的粒径和质量分布进行表征。
在一个旨在尽量减少背景颗粒浓度的试验箱中，对手套在假手上进行模拟使用期间进行重量法采样和空气动力学粒径分析。
在积极和非积极操作条件下，有粉和无粉手套均能检测到气溶胶。检测到的大多数颗粒的空气动力学直径小于10微米。
无粉手套并非完全没有粉末气溶胶。有粉和无粉手套产生的颗粒都足够细小，能够穿透到呼吸道的胸部区域。
