Wear disposable anti-virus equipment correctly

Use points:

(1) Choose a suitable and qualified gas mask when wearing

(2) Cover the nose, mouth and jaw

(3) Fix on the head with a rubber band (elastic band)

(4) Adjust the position of the face and check it

(5) The gas mask should be collapsed when inhaling

(6) There should be no leakage around the mask when exhaling


Remove the disposable gas mask

When removing the mask:

First lift the rubber band (elastic band) under the mask over the head

Then lift the rubber band (elastic band) above the mask to get the mask off the face

It is worth noting that: Disposable gas masks should be disinfected and then discarded after use


Hand protection equipment

Hand protection equipment-gloves

1. Gloves should be used when working in the laboratory.

2. In contact with infectious substances (blood, body fluids, secretions, exudates, as well as contact with mucous membranes and incomplete skin), suitable gloves must be used to protect workers from accidents caused by pollutants splashing or biological contamination. Damage caused

3. If the gloves are contaminated, they should be taken off as early as possible and discarded after disinfection

4. Gloves should meet the requirements of comfort, flexibility, firmness, wear resistance, puncture resistance and tear resistance according to the nature of the operation they are engaged in, and provide adequate protection for the hazards involved

5. Training for laboratory staff to choose gloves, wear and remove them before and after use.

6. Disposable gloves must not be reused

7. Disposable gloves must be disinfected first and then discarded.


Several key points of the standardized use of gloves:

1. The choice of gloves: biosafety laboratories generally use latex rubber or polynitrile or polyvinyl chloride gloves for protection against strong acids, strong alkalis, organic solvents and biohazardous substances

2. Glove inspection: Check whether the gloves are discolored, perforated (leakage) or cracks before using them. You can check the quality of the gloves by immersing the polyester gloves in water to observe whether there are bubbles

3. The use of gloves:

a) Generally, just wear a pair of gloves (BSL-1 laboratory)

b) Two pairs of gloves should be worn when handling infectious substances in a biological safety cabinet (BSL-2 and BSL-3 laboratories)

c) During the operation, the outer gloves are contaminated, immediately spray the gloves with disinfectant, take them off and discard them in the autoclave bag in the biological safety cabinet, and immediately put on new gloves to continue the experiment.

d) After wearing gloves, you can completely cover your hands and wrists. If necessary, you can cover the sleeves of the lab coat or coat


4. Cleaning and replacement of gloves

a) Use disposable gloves and do not reuse them. Autoclave immediately after use and then discard.

b) Do not leave the laboratory area wearing gloves.

c) Replace gloves if they are torn, damaged or suspected of internal contamination

d) Wash hands immediately after taking off gloves.

e) The staff should remove the outer gloves and throw them into the autoclave bag in the biological safety cabinet before leaving the biological safety cabinet after completing the infectious substance experiment. Then spray the inner gloves with disinfectant to avoid contamination of door knobs, light switches, telephones, etc. (BSL-2 and BSL-3 laboratories)


5Avoid “touch pollution” with gloves

a) Wear gloved hands to avoid touching the nose, face and avoid touching or adjusting other protective equipment (such as glasses, etc.)

b) Avoid touching unnecessary surfaces such as light switches, doors or knobs, etc.

c) If gloves are torn, they should be taken off, and hands should be washed before putting on new gloves

Be careful not to touch the work surface and other objects

Classification of Surgical Gowns

  Surgical gowns   are a type of   isolation clothing  worn for protection from pathogens during surgery. They provide an extra layer of cleanliness and hygiene to the surgical team, which is especially important in the hospital setting where more than one patient may be undergoing surgery at any given time. The first step to choosing a   surgical gown   for your practice is determining what fabric you prefer: cotton or synthetic? Cotton offers superior comfort and breathability but can wear out quicker than some synthetics; whereas synthetic fabrics offer more durability but a less natural feel. Synthetic fabrics also tend to cost less on average than cotton ones do – so it’s really up to you! These fabrics have large pores through which microorganisms can easily flow, resulting in poor barrier qualities. Closely woven textiles should be combined with polyester and long-staple cotton and treated with liquid-repellent fluorocarbons to improve the barrier qu...
