Permeation measurement of 27 chemotherapy drugs after simulated dynamic testing on 15 surgical and examination gloves: A knowledge update

Abstract: Purpose Exposure to anticancer drugs is one of the known risks for people working in specialist oncology units. Wearing gloves is a vital form of personal protection. The aim of this study was to assess, in close to real use dynamic conditions, the permeability of 15 surgical and examination gloves made from different materials when exposed to 27 anticancer drugs included in the list from international Guides and Recommendations. Methods Gloves were tested by using controlled dynamic conditions replicating fle… Show more

“…Literature data show that 5-fluorouracil, cyclophosphamide, iphosphamide, and gemcitabine, which are used in greater quantities ( 56 , 57 ), have low molecular weight (MW) (130, 261, 261, and 263 Da, respectively), and which, according to Oriyama et al ( 39 ), increases the glove permeation rate. Besides low molecular weight, these and other authors point to a possible influence of other chemico-physical properties, such as high drug lipophilia (high logarithm of octanol-water partition coefficient, Log P) ( 39 ), which is still controversial ( 58 ), topological polar surface area, and hydrogen bond donor capacity( 59 ).…”
