The Aurelia Quest 9289 nitrile, powder-free, disposable glove is textured along the length of the fingers for improved grip compared to a glove with textured fingertips. The glove has a palm thickness of 3 mils and a finger thickness of 4 mils, and is 9.4" long from the tip of the middle finger to the edge of the beaded wrist cuff, which is 2 mils thick. Nitrile provides better elasticity than vinyl, better puncture resistance than latex or vinyl, better abrasion resistance than chloroprene, and reduces the likelihood of allergic reaction. This powder-free glove leaves no residue, reducing the risk of contamination compared to a powdered glove. This ambidextrous white glove is suitable for dental and medical examination applications.

Tensile strength, measured in MPa, is the amount of force required to rip a glove; the higher the number, the stronger the glove material. Elongation measures how much a glove can be stretched before it breaks. It is expressed as a percent of the original length of the glove at the moment of breakage; the higher the percent, the more the glove can stretch. AQL is an FDA quality specification for the defect rate in surgical and exam gloves. The FDA requires an AQL of 1.5 for surgi
