  Background: Over 8% of the US population have detectable Type I hevea latex IgE antibodies and, upon exposure to natural latex and rubber products, are at risk for potentially dangerous reactions, especially in dental settings where these products meet mucosal membranes. Methods: Extractable antigenic protein levels were quantified in dental dams, examination gloves, and various other dental and rubber products. ASTM standards D6499 (antigenic protein) and D5712 (total protein) were used to quantify protein content. Results: In dental dams, extractable protein content ranged from low/non-sensitizing levels (<3 μg/dm2) to high/ sensitizing levels (130 200 μg/dm2). Also, while examination gloves from Malaysian glove manufacturers consistently exhibited a lower extractable protein conten.. View more»
