[labnetwork] Cleanroom gloves

[Gheorghe IORDACHE]

Hi Tony,

I still recall at the UGIM 2018 Greg Heiland’s comprehensive talk on this particular topic: “How To Select Appropriate Gloves & Wipes”.

You may contact him directly on Linkedin or see a short video here:

There are lots of options, but for years we’ve been using TechNitrile TN2000 Series gloves (both white and blue) from TechNiGlove International.  Like most alternatives, they have microtextured fingertips, which are not visible to the naked eye, but we’ve been happy with them.  I don’t recall any complaints about grip.  They are available through various suppliers.

Dear Colleague,

 

I wonder what brands and types of cleanroom gloves you use in your cleanroom. At Argonne, we have been using the Kimberly-Clark Professional™ Kimtech™ Pure G5 Blue Cleanroom Nitrile Gloves. Some time back we noticed that these blue ones were discontinued by the manufacturer, then we started to use the Kimberly-Clark Professional™ Kimtech™ Pure G3 Cleanroom NXT™ Nitrile Gloves. Besides the pros that this G3 type is less expensive and releases less particles than the G5 blue ones, some users noticed the difference in the grip strength of these two. The G3 has a smooth finish while the G5 blue has a more coarse finish which some users think has provided more grip strength.  

 

Thanks!
