Gloves
 |
The Titan TM brand 1318 proprietary polymer coated latex glove is a
result of leading edge developments in manufacturing technology. Latex
gloves are known for their tensile strength, fit, comfort and
flexibility. The synthetic polymer coating on the inside surface of the
glove minimizes direct skin contact. This is advantageous in two ways:
1.) Indirect contact with the glove surface minimizes chances of
inducing possible skin irritations and 2.) minimizes complications with
certain latex proteins that are known to induce allergic reactions in
susceptible individuals. Additionally, the slick polymer coating allows
for easy donning even under moist conditions. This is beneficial for our
customers who repetitively replace their gloves either between patient
examinations or experimentation procedures |

Nitrile gloves are a great alternative for those individuals that are
symptomatic to allergens in natural latex proteins. Nitrile is a
synthetic polymer that shares many of the desired characteristics of
latex with some distinct advantages. Nitrile has better puncture and
chemical resistance then latex. More significantly, nitrile is devoid of
some of the natural rubber latex proteins found in latex that can induce
Type I or Type IV hypersensitivity reactions in susceptible individuals
|

The new synthetic
formulation offers an ultra-soft glove that is a unique blend of comfort
and resilience. Simply stated, this is the premier glove. It features
the traditional strength and resistance of nitrile gloves with the
supple feel and comfort of latex, without the allergenic properties of
latex proteins. The glove fits snugly around the fingertips for optimal
tactile sensitivity and broadens out for a looser fit around the
knuckles to reduce tension and fatigue. The micro-texturing around the
fingertips promotes maximum grip and control even under wet conditions.
Nitrile gloves offer superior protection from incidental contact with
many of the chemicals found in the laboratory. This premium nitrile
glove is a true combination of comfort, protection, functionality and
biocompatibility |

The Titan TM brand
1317 latex glove showcases the best features of latex without powder.
Some studies have shown that the USP grade cornstarch from the latex
gloves is the carrier of latex proteins, potentially responsible for
inducing allergenic reactions in certain susceptible individuals. These
latex gloves are devoid of powder that can also leave a traceable
odorous residue. A modified version of the Lowry assay is used to
quantify overall levels of protein on the glove surface. Protein
concentration is determined by comparison with a standard calibration
curve derived from known amounts of reference protein. Not all proteins
found on latex gloves are allergenic, hence an overall decrease in all
proteins should correlate to a decrease in concentration of allergenic
proteins |

Powder Free, Low Tack, Latex Gloves
The Titan TM brand 1315 powder free, low tack finish latex glove is
ideal for double gloving. All of CLP’s gloves far exceed the FDA’s
Acceptable Quality Limits (AQL) and American Society for Testing and
Materials (ASTM) standards. The inherent value of double gloving Titan
TM brand gloves cannot be overstated. The double chlorination wash step
significantly reduces total extractable latex protein concentration.
Customers can appreciate the benefits of latex, while minimizing the
chances of latex protein exposure. The textured finish allows for a more
secure grip |

Powdered Latex Gloves
The light powdering on the Titan TM brand 1316 latex glove facilitates
donning and removal of gloves. Enjoy the feel, comfort, flexibility and
strength of latex…. at a value price. The high tack finish allows for
maximum grip, even under wet conditions. A modified version of the Lowry
assay is used to quantify overall levels of protein on the glove
surface. Protein concentration is determined by comparison with a
standard calibration curve derived from known amounts of reference
protein. Not all proteins found on latex gloves are allergenic, hence an
overall decrease in all proteins should correlate to a decrease in
concentration of allergenic proteins |
