<p>[QUOTE="-jeffB, post: 3979306, member: 27832"]I'd be <i>slightly</i> nervous about sulfur compounds in/on the latex. Some quick Googling on the topic indicates that there are surface treatments that contain sulfur compounds; some manufacturers apparently think it's that, not "latex allergy", that causes some people to get dermatitis from the gloves.</p><p><br /></p><p>I routinely reuse all sorts of "disposable" gloves, because I'm not dealing with medical/biological risks, and usually not even chemical risks -- just keeping grunge off my hands. Wash the gloves like you'd wash your hands, while you're still wearing them, then let them dry. They're harder to get on and off after the initial powder treatment is gone. Stuff will surely grow in them if you're unreasonable about how long you keep using them.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
