A biologically absorbable powder, the cornstarch lubricant used in the production of gloves, is treated with epichlorohydrin, a cross-linking agent forming one to three diether glycerine groups to create a glove lubricating powder. This agent, together with chemicals used in glove fabrication is able to interfere with important biological diagnostic procedures, such as polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and enzyme immunoassay as well as to induce a granulomatous reaction in traumatised surgical tissue.
一种可生物吸收的粉末,即用于手套生产的玉米淀粉润滑剂,用环氧氯丙烷处理,环氧氯丙烷是一种交联剂,可形成一至三个二醚甘油基团,从而制成手套润滑粉。这种试剂,连同手套制造中使用的化学物质,能够干扰重要的生物诊断程序,如聚合酶链反应(PCR)和酶免疫测定,以及在受创伤的手术组织中引发肉芽肿反应。
