These powder-free gloves with AMT Antimicrobial Technology reduce wearer exposure to pathogens. In addition, the antimicrobial surgical gloves have the potential to decrease the risk of surgical site infection (SSI).

• Rapid and lasting antibacterial action against a wide range of bacteria
• Straight cuff with adhesive band (SUREFIT™ technology)
• Micro-textured surface, chlorinated
• Contains moisturisers and anti-irritants to ensure a skin friendly glove

AMT antimicrobial technology, with the proprietary antimicrobial coating, contains chlorhexidine gluconate (CHG) for antiviral and antibacterial action. It can suppress the regrowth of bacteria on surgeons’ hands, so in the event of a glove breach, it helps prevent bacterial contamination of the surgical site. CHG is an effective antimicrobial agent found in common products such as antiseptics and mouthwashes.

During in vitro laboratory testing, the glove:
- Kills > 99% of a HCV virus surrogate as early as 1 min. following exposure
- Kills 99% of HIV -1 strain Mn as early as 1 min. following exposure
- Kills > 99,7% to > 99,999% of 8 common infectious bacteria causing healthcare facility–associated infection, comprising gram+, gram-, and drug-resistant bacteria as early as 1 and 2 min. following exposure

Recommended for: All surgeries (especially high risk procedures in orthopaedics, trauma, and cardiac), sustained, high-risk examination procedures and for use as an outer or underglove when double gloving.
