Surgical glove dusting powders are commonly used as mold-release agents and to facilitate donning. Cornstarch and CaCO3 are commonly used absorbable dusting powders. This experimental study demonstrates that these absorbable dusting powders significantly potentiate bacterial growth and enhance a wound's inflammatory response. The infection-potentiating effects of CaCO3 are significantly greater than those of cornstarch.
手术手套撒粉通常用作脱模剂并便于穿戴。玉米淀粉和碳酸钙是常用的可吸收撒粉。这项实验研究表明，这些可吸收撒粉会显著促进细菌生长并增强伤口的炎症反应。碳酸钙的感染促进作用明显大于玉米淀粉。
