Abcs Of Nitrile Exam Gloves

By Stacey Burt


The history of glove goes back to antiquity. In some translations of Homer's Odyssey, Laertes is described walking in his garden with glove to guard against blackberries (It is said in other translations Laertes had pulled his long sleeves over his hands). Herodotus in his Histories (440 BC. BC) tells how Leotychides was incriminated by a gauntlet filled with money he received as a bribe (nitrile exam gloves). Xenophon reported in Cyropaedia, the Persians were wearing winter mittens.

Are used by thousands of years, and what sets them apart from others is that glove are comfortable and give a strong hold. They started to appear in a primitive form at the Vikings: Scandinavia in cold forced them to cover the hands . More than glove, were similar to mittens, with only two openings, which restricted the movements.

They, who performed before the activity to protect your hands from the cold, then became apparel indicating nobility. From simple "bags" that enveloped the hands that were in Barbarians, they were developed by purchasing the shape of hand, allowing the movements of all the fingers, although they were often bulky and uncomfortable.

It is at this time that was born the expression of "throw glove": a person is marched glove and threw him before the feet of challenger to ask him if he could challenge him and if the challenger collected glove meant he had accepted. If someone gave her hand to someone else with gloved palm was as rude as glove showed superiority.

There are also glove (leather) special, reserved to falconry: they are bulky and awkward even if they allow to articulate all the fingers, are used to keep a hawk or another type of Prey, usually on arm. There are some special falconry glove that do not cover the arm but only from the wrist up, are used for small owls and birds not too big.

If the glove was originally a utilitarian function, leaving the ends open and fingers free to work, they become in eighteenth century fashion accessories, worn indoors by the ladies in a purely aesthetic purpose. This fashion will remain until the nineteenth century. These indoor mittens were diverse: knitted, embroidered, crochet, fishnet or lace. They stopped at the wrist or elbow.

Disposable glove in latex, nitrile or vinyl are often worn by doctors for hygienic reasons. The police often wears glove such as not to contaminate the crime scene. To avoid leaving fingerprints many criminals wear glove like. Glove can be made of many materials such as cloth, wool, leather, rubber, latex, neoprene, metal or Kevlar to protect your hands from cuts. Glove are also an important component for the spacesuits are thinner and the rest of suit to allow the movement (even if you cut easily, causing depressurization of suit).

Glove to protect your hands from the cold, there have been quite early. From raw skins prepared with extra bone they were a garment of prehistoric man. Even the Bible mentions it in connection with Jacob when he deceived his brother Esau the blessing of Father.
