Nitrile: the default for clinical and diagnostic work
Nitrile gloves are made from synthetic rubber and offer strong puncture and chemical resistance without latex proteins. That combination makes them the standard choice for healthcare where latex allergy is a concern for both wearers and patients. For clinical and diagnostic tasks, nitrile gives the best balance of barrier strength, comfort and allergy safety, and modern formulations have closed most of the tactile-sensitivity gap with latex.
- Strong puncture and chemical resistance
- Latex-free, safe for allergy-sensitive settings
- Good tactile sensitivity in modern formulations
