Heightened sensitivity with proven strength.
Biogel® PI Micro is a synthetic, powder-free, sterile, polyisoprene, surgical glove with the fit, feel and comfort of natural rubber latex (1). Typically 20% thinner than Biogel® PI UltraTouch®, it is designed for improved tactile sensitivity.
Recommended for all surgical procedures, especially where extra tactile sensitivity is needed or when latex allergies are a concern for the patients or clinicians. It can be used alone or as an overglove with Biogel® PI Micro Indicator® Underglove.
Tested according to ASTM 6978-05 and approved for use with chemotherapy agents. Please refer to permeation details for breakthrough times.

Biogel PI Micro Synthetic (non-latex) surgical glove.
A recent published study analyzed the clinical and operational costs related to the use of natural rubber latex gloves. The study found that the costs associated with latex allergy events and latex-related O.R. teardowns outweighed the line-item costs of synthetic or latex-free gloves. After the facility converted to Biogel synthetic gloves, they were able to reduce their overall costs by 25%, saving over $74,000.
