Choosing the right Nitrile or Latex glove for your needs

Choosing a Latex or Nitrile Glove for your needs

Gloves are an essential part of most laboratories. 4 criteria must be met for high quality gloves:

Excellent tactile sensitivity
Provide barrier protection
Remain non-reactive when in contact with patient or sample
Provide comfort over extended wear times

MIDSCI™ carries high quality nitrile and latex gloves. With all of MIDSCI™’s extensive choices, you will not only be able to find a glove that fits your needs, but it will be a glove that you love!

When picking either latex or nitrile gloves, it is important to know exactly which qualities are most important to you. MIDSCI™ carries 3 main types of latex gloves:

Luminance™
Distinct™
Vibrant™
- Sizes from extra-small to extra-large
- All of the gloves are manufactured by Aurelia® and undergo air testing for holes to ensure you receive high quality gloves.

Worried about tearing?

Distinct is your best latex option while maintaining great elasticity.

Worried about a latex allergy?

The Vibrant™ latex gloves are triple washed to significantly reduce the risk of a latex allergy with super low protein content.

Need excellent grip?

The polymer coating found in the Velocity™, Distinct™, and Luminance™ allows for optimum comfort and increased gripping actions. Many of the gloves are also textured to ensure maximum grip.

Are you instead looking for Nitrile gloves?

MIDSCI™ carries Aurelia®’s extensive line of Nitrile gloves.

Aurelia®’s nitrile gloves offer:

Superior comfort and durability
Finger texture
Air tested to detect pinholes
Extensive quality control check to ensure optimum product

Nitrile gloves are offered from the thinnest nitrile available on the market (Amazing™) to a thicker nitrile glove for superior protection (Robust™).

MIDSCI™ carries 6 main types of nitrile gloves:

Are you looking for high tactile sensitivity?

We would recommend any of the thin nitrile gloves for this. Amazing™ gloves are the thinnest, while Perform™ gloves offer strength comfort and sensitivity.

Are you looking for high tactile sensitivity while maintaining durability?

Transform™ gloves are thin yet durable.

Are you looking for a glove similar to latex in comfort, fit and cost, but need nitrile durability and latex-free?

Try the Aurelia® Quest™ glove! Quest™ gloves also maintain great chemical resistance and are finger textured for optimum gripping. The Protégé™ glovealso rivals latex in comfort and ergonomics and comes in a powder blue color.

Need a thicker nitrile glove for improved puncture resistance?
