Esteem® Brand Tru-Blu™ StretchyNitrile Exam Gloves Glove Products
• Micro-textured glove for improved grip even
when wet, affording a higher coefficient of
friction (grip) than most nitrile exam gloves
on the market
• Provides greater tactile sensitivity while
maintaining film strength and barrier
protection
• Cleared for use with chemotherapy agents
• Demonstrated permeation resistance to a
number of commonly used hospital and
laboratory chemicals

Chemical Resistance
All gloves must meet a certain Acceptable Quality Level (AQL) as established by the The Esteem® brand Tru-Blu™ stretchy nitrile exam gloves Food and Drug Administration (FDA). This refers to their freedom from holes and their have been tested per ASTM F739, ”Standard Test Method subsequent level of barrier protection.
