Importance of reducing the risk of Type IV Chemical Allergies for Dental Professionals
Allergic reactions to chemical residues from the glove manufacturing
process may produce what is known as a Type IV Allergy (Chemical
Allergy) or ACD. This type of allergy is not life threatening, but it is a
major concern for healthcare workers. Ansell provides products that are specifically engineered for healthcare workers who may have extremely sensitive skin. Using advanced manufacturing processes, these products are produced without the use of any chemical accelerators.
