“…Keeble, Corell, and Ehrich (1993) utilized an in vitro test system to determine percutaneous absorption of azinphos‐methyl, paraoxon, and malathion from glove fabrics. Absorption was quantified as the amount of acetyl cholinesterase inhibition that occurred within the in vitro test system.…”

“…Absorption was quantified as the amount of acetyl cholinesterase inhibition that occurred within the in vitro test system. Out of the fabrics tested, 100% cotton in 13‐cut and 7‐cut displayed the lowest rates of acetyl cholinesterase inhibition through the in vitro system, therefore providing the best protection against the organophosphate pesticides (Keeble, Corell, & Ehrich, 1993). A later study by Keeble, Corell, and Ehrich (1996) used in vitro test systems to study the effect of laundering on permeation properties of fabric and subsequent percutaneous penetration (Keeble, Corell, & Ehrich, 1996).…”

“…They also suggest that starching aids in absorbing pesticide, which reduces pesticide exposure and subsequent penetration ( into the skin at different rates, and it is imperative to remove the contaminated clothing as soon as possible (Table 1).

Percutaneous penetration of chemicals from clothing can result in both acute and chronic toxicities. Although personal protective equipment composed of nonwoven material can provide thorough protection, it is often uncomfortable under normal occupational conditions. Certain everyday textiles are often utilized as protective clothing due to their cost, comfort, and convenience. Although common textiles may cover most skin, certain regions remain exposed by such outfits. The body areas covered by the fabric are at risk for fabric permeation and percutaneous penetration of chemical, either immediately or over time, dependent on the fabric composition and the characteristics of the chemical used. in vitro and in vivo publications studied percutaneous penetration of chemicals from contaminated fabric and show that everyday textiles are superior to bare skin. The increased protection offered can be attributed to properties of the fabric such as weave, thickness, fabric finish, absorbency, and the overall barrier provided. Although common textiles do offer some protection, they remain inferior to nonwoven personal protective equipment. Much remains unknown regarding percutaneous penetration and protection offered by everyday textiles.

“…In most dermal exposure cases, the skin of the hands may have greater exposure than any other parts of the body (Keeble, Correll, & Ehrich, 1993). Wearing gloves is thought of as one effective and practical means to decrease pesticide exposure when farmers mix, load, and apply pesticides.…”

Diseases of the skin caused by physical or chemical agents or conditions at work continue to outnumber all other work‐associated illnesses. They occur in most occupations and vary from a minor dermatitides to life threatening eruptions and benign and malignant neoplasms. Descriptive titles associated with particular illnesses allow the nosology of illnesses to be easily elucidated, for example, asbestos wart, cement burn, chrome holes, fiber glass itch, hog itch, oil acne, rubber rash, and tar smarts. In view of the variety of skin lesions known to result from contactants within the workplace, the term “occupational dermatoses” is preferred because it includes any abnormality of the skin resulting directly from or aggravated by the work environment.
