Extractable protein content (EP) of latex gloves varies from as low as less than 20 micro-gram per gram of gloves (mg/g) to as high as more than 1000 micro-gram (mg/g) depending on the manufacturing methods and processes. Well leached powdered gloves and power-free gloves usually show low EP content below 100 mg/g. Rubber band made of solid dry natural rubber contains the extractable protein below 20 micro-gram per gram of rubber band (mg/g) even for high rubber content rubber band.
