1、Designation: D 6978 05Standard Practice forAssessment of Resistance of Medical Gloves to Permeationby Chemotherapy Drugs1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 6978; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, th

2、e year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This practice covers a protocol for the assessment ofresistance of medical glove materials to permeation by

3、 poten-tially hazardous cancer chemotherapy drugs under conditionsof continuous contact. An assessment is made based on thepermeation (breakthrough) of nine chemotherapy drugsthrough the glove material over a certain period of time.1.2 It is emphasized that the conditions used in this assess-ment ar

4、e intended to approximate the worst-case condition forclinical uses. The data should be restricted to use on a relativebasis when comparing glove materials.1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of

5、 this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

Test Protocol5.1 Summary of Test Method:5.1.1 The gloves in question shall be tested in accordancewith the method set out in Test Method F 739, Procedure A.5.1.2 The resistance of a medical glove material to perme-ation by chemotherapy drugs shall be

11、determined by measuringthe breakthrough detection time of the drugs through the glovematerial. The test method involves using the test material serveas a membrane (partition) between the two halves of a test cell.One half of the cell shall contain the donor solution of the testdrug and the other hal

12、f shall contain the appropriate collectionmedium, that is, distilled water or other liquid, which does notinfluence the permeation of the drug being tested. A test drugpermeates through the sample material when the test drug isable to pass through the test material. As the test drugcontinuously pass

13、es through the sample material, its concen-tration increases over time. The collection medium shall besampled at recorded time intervals and analyzed quantitativelyto determine the concentration of the permeated drug. Theconcentration of the drug in the collection medium shall beused to calculate th

14、e breakthrough detection time and perme-ation rate (see 3.1.2), in accordance with Test Method F 739.5.2 Test Protocol:5.2.1 Test Material Selection:5.2.1.1 Three medical gloves that meet the appropriateASTM standards (Specifications D 3577, D 3578, D 5250,D 6319, and D 6977) shall be selected and u

17、anually measure each glove thickness with athickness gage that has a presser foot pressure that meets therequirement of Practice D 3767, and graduations to 20 m. Foreach medical glove, record manual thickness measurementsfrom two distinct areas of the medical glove: palm and cuff.From these measurem

18、ents determine the thinner area of theglove between the palm and cuff. Obtain test samples from thethinner area of the glove.5.2.1.2 Cut one 5 by 5-cm piece of material from the palmor cuff of each test medical glove, whichever area measuredthinnest. Identify the outer side of the sample.5.2.1.3 One

19、 test sample shall be obtained from each of thethree test medical gloves. As a result, there will be a minimumof 27 test samples obtained when testing against the nine testdrugs. The number of test drugs, nine, is a minimum.5.2.2 Representative Drugs to be Tested:5.2.2.1 The chemotherapy drugs used

20、in testing shall incor-porate the different classes of clinical drugs. The number ofdrugs tested shall reflect a minimum of nine currently usedclinical drugs.5.2.2.2 The clinical drugs selected shall include at least thefollowing seven drugs: Carmustine, Cyclophosphamide, Doxo-rubicin, Etoposide, Fl

21、uorouracil, Paclitaxel, and Thiotepa. SeeTable 1.5.2.2.3 The testing shall be completed with an additionaltwo clinical drugs that can be selected by the user of thispractice. Table 2 is available as a guide for selecting additionalchemotherapy drugs.5.2.2.4 The clinical drugs called for in this prac
