Foreword

This Standard was drafted in accordance with the rules given in GB/T 1.1-2009.

This Standard replaces GB 7543-2006 "Single-use sterile rubber surgical gloves -

Specification". Compared with GB 7543-2006, in addition to the editorial

modifications, the main technical changes in this Standard are as follows.

- In the Scope, modified "This Standard specifies the technical requirements for

packaged sterile rubber gloves used in surgical procedures to protect the patient

and user and avoid cross-contamination. It is applicable to disposable gloves that

are worn once and then discarded. It is inapplicable to examination gloves or

procedure gloves. It includes gloves with smooth surfaces and gloves with hemp

surfaces. " TO "This Standard specifies requirements for packaged sterile rubber

gloves intended for use in surgical procedures to protect the patient and the user

from cross-contamination. It is applicable to single-use gloves that are worn once

and then discarded. It does not apply to examination or procedure gloves. It covers

gloves with smooth surfaces and gloves with textured surfaces over part or the

whole glove." (see Chapter 1 of this Edition, Chapter 1 of Edition 2006);

- In 3.2 Type, modified "b) Type 2.gloves manufactured primarily from nitrile rubber

latex, neoprene latex, styrene-butadiene rubber latex, styrene-butadiene rubber

latex or thermoplastic elastomer solution." TO "b) Type 2.gloves made primarily

from nitrile rubber latex, isoprene rubber latex, polychloroprene rubber latex,

styrene-butadiene rubber solution, styrene-butadiene rubber emulsion or

thermoplastic elastomer solution." (see 3.2 of this Edition, 3.2 of Edition 2006);

- in 3.4 Finish, modified "There are four types of finishes. a) pockmarked surface; b)

smooth surface; c) powdered surface; d) powder-free surface." TO "Two finishes

are classified. a) textured surface over part or all of the glove; b) smooth surface."

(see 3.4 of this Edition, 3.4 of Edition 2006);

- in Chapter 4, modified "Gloves are made with natural rubber latex, nitrile rubber

latex, neoprene latex, styrene-butadiene rubber or thermoplastic elastomer

solution, or styrene-butadiene rubber latex. For ease of donning, surface treatment

with ISO 10993 compliant lubricants, powders or polymeric coatings may be

used." TO "Gloves shall be manufactured from compounded natural rubber or

nitrile rubber or isoprene rubber or polychloroprene rubber latex, or compounded

styrene-butadiene rubber or thermoplastic elastomer solution, or compounded

styrene-butadiene rubber emulsion. To facilitate donning the gloves, any surface

treatment, lubricant, powder or polymer coating may be used subject to

compliance with ISO 10993." (see Chapter 4 of this Edition, Chapter 4 of Edition

2006);

- in 6.3.1, modified "Tensile properties shall be determined in accordance with ISO

37 Cut 3 test pieces from each glove. The result is the median value. The test

piece should be taken from the palm or back of the glove." TO "Tensile properties

shall be measured in accordance with ISO 37, taking three type 2 dumb-bell test

pieces from each glove and using the median value as the test result. Test pieces

shall be taken from the palm or back of gloves." (see 6.3.1 of this Edition, 6.3.1

of Edition 2006).

This Standard uses translation method to identically adopt ISO 10282.2014 "Single-use

sterile rubber surgical gloves - Specification".

references in this Standard are as follows.
