  2. Gammex® PF XP™ Extra protection for handling cytostatic agents. January 2008 Agenda Gammex® PF XP™ Technical Features and Benefits Healthcare risks associated with cytostatics Leading the research on cytostatic permeation ACPP: Results corresponding to real life conditions AnsellCares Support Documentation Regulatory Requirements (Personal Protective Equipment) Promotion & Launch Pack Ansell Europe 2007

  3. Gammex® PF XP™ Extra protection for handling cytostatic agents. January 2008 • Technical Features & Benefits • Indigo blue colour for easy identification of personal protection in a high risk environment • - Optimized wall thickness (10% thicker) secures ACPP permeation times for effective barrier protection • Low risk of pin-holes due to increased wall thickness, • visual inspection and water leak testing before packing GL I AQL 0.65 leads to high barrier protection (1) • Polyurethane lining with hydrophilic and hydrophobic elements facilitates damp donning and double gloving (1) • Improved grip level to secure safe handling of laboratory equipment • Provides superior comfort to avoid hand fatigue (specifically against Z+ from Berner) PPE Pictograms!

  4. Gammex® PF XP™ Extra protection for handling cytostatic agents. January 2008 • Low allergenic profile of Gammex® Technology. • Protein and Endogenous Allergen Reduction Leaching (P.E.A.R.L.) Technology that delivers a glove with extremely low extractible proteins, reducing risk of latex sensitization (Typical values are below < 10 µg/g (Modified Lowry / HPLC). Fitkit ™: Non detectible (very low allergenicity) – Sum of the four clinically relevant allergens • measured below > 0.03 µg/g (9, 10, 11, 12) - Unique (PV100) accelerator becomes gases which are completely consumed during processing leaving non detectable chemical accelerator residue thereby reducing the risk of contact dermatitis.
