Built for Every Lab Buyer Role

The tariff doubled your glove spend. Your diagnostic reagent supplier didn't.

Your current glove supplier raised prices 40–60% in the past 18 months because of tariffs on Chinese-origin nitrile. Pro-Lab didn't. At $5.99 per 100-glove box, Pro-Lab Nitrile Exam Gloves are manufactured to ASTM D6319 standard — the same federal standard governing your current $17–21 box — and they ship on the same order as your diagnostic reagents.

Gloves that hold up through an 8-hour shift. Without tearing, powdering, or cramping.

You know immediately when a box is bad — tearing during donning, chalky residue on your hands, or that burning sensation halfway through your shift. Pro-Lab Nitrile Exam Gloves are powder-free exam-grade nitrile, sized to fit without bagging at the fingers or cutting off circulation at the wrist. They're 100% synthetic — no latex protein, no latex allergy risk.

One vendor for diagnostics and consumables. One PO. One invoice. $5.99 per box.

Your lab is already buying TestOxidase, Kovacs Reagent, or McFarland Standards from Pro-Lab. Your gloves are on a separate purchase order with VWR, Fisher, or Medline — at $17–21 per box because tariffs drove up the price of the same product you were buying for $8 three years ago. Pro-Lab Nitrile Exam Gloves add to your existing order at $5.99 per box — no new vendor, no new contract, no separate PO.

OSHA Bloodborne Pathogen Compliant. ASTM D6319 Exam Grade. Documentation on Request.

When your OSHA inspector asks what gloves your lab is using and why, the answer needs to be documented — not assumed. Pro-Lab Nitrile Exam Gloves satisfy OSHA 29 CFR 1910.1030 hand protection requirements and are FDA Class I Medical Devices under 21 CFR 880.6250. SDS and regulatory standard references are available on request. ASTM D6319 Certificate of Conformance is pending from the supplier — contact us for availability.

Clinical & Regulatory FAQ

Pro-Lab Nitrile Exam Gloves (PLG100/101/103) are manufactured to ASTM D6319 standard. A Certificate of Conformance will be made available on request upon receipt from the supplier — contact orders@pro-lab-direct.com to confirm availability.
Powder-free status is pending supplier confirmation — contact Pro-Lab for current product specification. Note: The FDA banned powdered medical examination gloves in the US in 2016 (21 CFR 888.5240). All FDA-compliant medical exam gloves sold after January 2017 must be powder-free.
Pro-Lab Nitrile Exam Gloves cost $5.99 per 100-glove box versus VWR's current list price of $17.99–$21.82 — a difference of approximately 67–73%. Both products are manufactured to ASTM D6319 standard for medical examination gloves. A Certificate of Conformance documents lot-specific test results; contact us to confirm current availability for Pro-Lab PLG gloves.
Yes. Nitrile examination gloves provide appropriate chemical resistance for handling Pro-Lab diagnostic reagents including TestOxidase (TMPD reagent), Kovacs Reagent (p-dimethylaminobenzaldehyde in isoamyl alcohol), and Gram stain reagents. OSHA HazCom SDS documents for each reagent specify nitrile as appropriate PPE. Contact Pro-Lab for specific chemical compatibility data.
Yes. OSHA 29 CFR 1910.1030(d)(3)(ix) requires appropriate gloves for all tasks involving potential contact with blood or other potentially infectious materials (OPIM). Nitrile examination gloves satisfy this requirement. Pro-Lab Nitrile Exam Gloves are 100% latex-free — no latex protein allergy risk for healthcare workers with documented latex sensitivity.
Yes. PLG100 (Medium), PLG101 (Small), and PLG103 (Large) are available at pro-lab-direct.com and can be added to any existing Pro-Lab order — same cart, same invoice, same delivery. No separate vendor account or purchase order required.
A small percentage of users (~5–6%) experience allergic contact dermatitis from rubber accelerators (thiurams, dithiocarbamates) used in conventional nitrile glove manufacturing — documented in a 49-study systematic review (PMC11255930, 2024). This is a category-wide characteristic of conventional nitrile, not specific to any brand. Pro-Lab Nitrile Gloves are 100% latex-free, eliminating latex protein allergy risk. Users with documented rubber accelerator sensitivity should consult their biosafety officer or healthcare provider.
No. Nitrile examination gloves (ASTM D6319) are designed for bloodborne pathogen protection and general exam use — they are not rated for chemical splash protection against corrosives, solvents, or concentrated acids. For chemical splash applications, a chemical-resistant glove rated to ASTM D6978 or EN374 is required. Exam gloves are appropriate PPE for handling Pro-Lab diagnostic reagents at the concentrations supplied, but not for direct splash exposure to concentrated chemicals.
