  • Title: Limitations in protection afforded by gloves in laboratory handling of aflatoxins.
    Author: Castegnaro M, Van Egmond HP, Paulsch WE, Michelon J.
    Journal: J Assoc Off Anal Chem; 1982 Nov; 65(6):1520-3. PubMed ID: 7174597.
    Abstract:
    The permeability of latex and vinyl laboratory gloves by aflatoxins in chloroform or dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) has been investigated. Latex gloves provide good protection against permeation by aflatoxins in DMSO, but aflatoxins in chloroform permeate all types of laboratory gloves. If gloves are contaminated when aflatoxins in chloroform are handled, an immediate change of gloves is recommended.
