JPH07289564A - Operation gloves for acute allergy resistance and its production - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain operating gloves which render a user the feel approximate to the feel of the bare hands without generating an acute allergy symptom when the gloves touch the lesion by consisting of the operatic gloves for acute allergy resistance of latex contg. a specific ratio of protein. CONSTITUTION:The gloves for acute allergy resistance are formed of the latex contg. <=0.016g/100g protein. This process for producing such gloves consists of a stage for producing the latex by subjecting natural rubber to at least two times of centrifugal sepn. to remove impurities, such as protein, fat- components, etc., therefrom, a stage for molding this latex to the gloves for operation, a stage for subjecting the operation gloves obtd. in the previous stage to three times of washing with water for 20 minutes in water of a water temp. 90 deg.C, 20 minutes in water of 50 deg.C and 20 minutes in water of 40 deg.C, thereby removing the protein. The operation gloves are extremely low in the protein content and do not generate the acute allergy symptom in spite of contact with the lesion.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an acute allergy-resistant surgical glove that does not cause acute allergic symptoms when the surgical glove touches an affected area.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, natural rubber latex is used as a raw material for surgical gloves, which is said to be capable of being formed into an ultra-thin film, which is highly flexible and gives a feeling of wearing and workability similar to bare hands.

However, in the above-mentioned conventional surgical gloves, the raw material natural rubber latex is produced by removing the protein / fat content in the natural rubber by a centrifuge, but especially the water-soluble protein still remains. (The protein content by Lowry method is 0.13
2 to 0.155 g / 100 g, 0.0 for Applicant's product
69 g / 100 g), which causes acute allergic symptoms when it touches the affected area.

[0004]

The problem to be solved is that the above-mentioned conventional surgical glove causes an acute allergic symptom when it touches an affected area due to the protein contained therein. .

[0005]

The surgical glove according to the present invention is an acute allergic surgical glove made of latex containing 0.016 g / 100 g or less of protein.

The present invention also comprises a step of producing a latex by centrifuging natural rubber at least twice to remove impurities such as proteins and fats, and a step of molding the latex into a surgical glove, and It comprises a step of removing the protein by washing the surgical glove obtained in the previous step with water at a water temperature of 90 ° C. for 20 minutes, 50 ° C. for 20 minutes, and 40 ° C. for 20 minutes three times. is there.

[0007]

EXAMPLE An example will be described. It consists of three steps. First, in order to remove impurities such as proteins and fats in natural rubber, centrifugation was carried out only once. Then, centrifuge at least twice to produce latex. Next, this latex is molded and processed to produce an ultrathin and highly flexible surgical glove. Thirdly, in order to further remove the protein in the surgical glove obtained in the previous step, it was conventionally washed in water at room temperature (20 to 50 ° C.) for 120 minutes, whereas in the present invention, the water temperature is 90. 2 in water at ℃
0 minutes, 50 ° C water for 20 minutes, 40 ° C water for 20 minutes
Wash 3 times with water. By doing so, the protein in the surgical glove is 0.016 g / 1, which is 1/10 of the conventional one.
It is reduced to 00g.

Moreover, the present applicant investigated the size and shape of the hands of 1,000 adult males and females, which is not directly related to the present invention, and based on the data obtained therefrom, the fingers and palm -The size of the hand, including the length of the hand and the total length, has been finely categorized, and it has been decided to provide a product that best fits each user, is extremely thin, and has a high degree of flexibility, which is similar to what is called a bare hand.

To explain the operation, the surgical glove obtained by the present invention has a protein content of 0.016 g / 1.
It is extremely small as 00 g, and even if it touches the affected area, it does not cause acute allergic symptoms. Moreover, it is the most fit, ultra-thin, and highly flexible for the user.
Since it is similar to what is called a bare hand, surgery can be performed accurately and quickly, and fatigue is reduced.

[0010]

Since the present invention is constructed as described above,
Without touching the affected area and causing acute allergic symptoms,
Moreover, it has become possible to manufacture surgical gloves that are similar to what a so-called bare hand feels for the user.
