Latex Glove Concerns
Latex gloves, especially thin, disposable exam gloves, are widely used in labs. Two considerations to be aware of: 1) because of the organic material used in latex gloves, they may offer limited protection from commonly used chemicals and 2) many workers have developed latex allergies because of proteins in the gloves. Appropriate work practices are needed to reduce the chance of reactions to latex in the workplace.
Be cautious using latex gloves with chemical materials. Consult the Chemical's Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) or manufacturer's chemical resistance data for information on glove selection.
Don't use latex gloves with dry toxins since latex generates static electricity.
Don't use oil-based hand creams or lotions when wearing latex gloves. They can compromise the integrity of the glove.
Use powder-free, reduced protein latex gloves since sensitized workers may react to inhalation of airborne powders.
Wash hands with a mild soap and dry thoroughly after removing all gloves.
Frequently clean areas and equipment contaminated with latex-containing dust.
Learn to recognize the symptoms of latex allergy: skin rash; hives; flushing; itching; nasal, eye, or sinus symptoms; asthma; and (rarely) shock. See NIOSH 6/97 alert at www.cdc.gov/niosh/latexalt.html.

Are you talking about prepowdered vinyl or latex gloves that makes them easier to put on?

It makes them easier to put on and more comfortable to wear. It is possible to buy powder free gloves if you are allergic to the powder.

So you can get the darned things on and off. Otherwise it would be like putting toothpaste back in a tube.
