In healthcare settings like hospitals, dental clinics, and medical laboratories, healthcare professionals need to avoid exposure to infectious microbes and thus the usage of gloves that are sterile is considered much more important.<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-547 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/medineeds.co.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/sterile-gloves.jpg\" alt=\"sterile gloves\" width=\"275\" height=\"183\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Another difference between sterile and non-sterile gloves is in the AQL or the acceptable quality level of pinholes.

The sterilization process of medical devices usually includes different methods like the application of dry heat, moist heat or Steam, ethylene oxide, and radiation. The methods commonly used for the production of sterile gloves include ethylene oxide and gamma rays. They are then packed in sterile packets to ensure safety throughout the shelf life or until the packets are opened by the wearer.<\/p>\n<h5><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Are_sterile_gloves_costly_and_why\"><\/span>Are sterile gloves costly, and why?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h5>\n<p>Yes.
