Specifies requirements for single-use gloves intended to protect the user and a patient from cross-contamination during medical and dental examinations and diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. It also covers single-use gloves intended for use in handling contaminated medical materials, and includes particular requirements for regulatory authority application. It is technically equivalent to and reproduced from ISO 11193:1994. Appendices contain variations to materials, physical properties and marking requirements.

This International Standard specifies requirements for packaged sterile, or bulked non-sterile, rubber gloves intended for use in medical examinations and diagnostic or therapeutic procedures to protect the patient and the user from cross-contamination. It also covers rubber gloves intended for use in handling contaminated medical materials.This standard applies to single-use gloves that fit either hand, paired gloves and gloves by size. It covers gloves with smooth surfaces or with textured surfaces over part or all of the glove.This standard does not apply to gloves made from plastic film either of a dipped or welded construction or as a substitute for gloves for use in surgical procedures.This standard is intended as a reference for the performance and safety of rubber examination gloves. The safe and proper usage of examination gloves and sterilization procedures with subsequent handling and storage procedures are outside the scope of this International Standard.
