Antimicrobial glove study
26 March 2014
Ansell has announced the results of a recently published study demonstrating that antimicrobial surgical gloves have the potential to decrease the risk of surgical site infection (SSI).

In the event of a glove breach, the antimicrobial agent can suppress the regrowth of bacteria on surgeons’ hands and help prevent bacterial contamination of the surgical site.
Ansell claims to be leading the industry in developing such advanced technologies and innovations, including the GAMMEX Powder-Free surgical glove with AMT Antimicrobial Technology, to help address the problem of SSIs and help reduce the risk of microbial transmission.
