Class 1
Intended Use
Non-sterile Powder Free Nitrile Examination Gloves (tested for use with Chemotherapy Drugs) is a non-sterile, single-use, disposable device intended for medical purposes that is worn on the examiner's hand to prevent contamination between patient and examiner. These gloves have been tested for use with chemotherapy drugs per ASTM D6978-05 (2019) Standard Practice for Assessment of Resistance of Medical Gloves to Permeation by Chemotherapy Drugs.
Device Story
Single-use, disposable, non-sterile nitrile examination gloves; worn by healthcare examiners to prevent cross-contamination; manufactured from synthetic copolymer of acrylonitrile and butadiene with blue color additive; features ambidextrous design, textured fingertips, and beaded cuff; tested for permeation resistance against nine chemotherapy drugs per ASTM D6978-05 (2019); provides barrier protection in clinical settings; output is physical protection for the wearer; benefits include reduced risk of exposure to patient contaminants and specific chemotherapy agents.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Bench testing only. Conformance demonstrated via ASTM D6319-19 (dimensions), ASTM D412-16 (tensile/elongation), ASTM D5151-19 (freedom from holes), ASTM D6124-06 (residual powder), and ASTM D6978-05 (chemotherapy permeation). Biocompatibility testing per ISO 10993-5 (cytotoxicity), ISO 10993-10 (irritation/sensitization), and ISO 10993-11 (systemic toxicity) confirmed safety despite severe reactivity at 100% concentration in cytotoxicity testing.
Technological Characteristics
Material: Synthetic copolymer of acrylonitrile and butadiene (nitrile). Design: Ambidextrous, textured fingertips, beaded cuff. Dimensions: XS-XL sizes, thickness min 0.05mm. Standards: ASTM D6319-19, ASTM D412-16, ASTM D5151-19, ASTM D6124-06, ASTM D6978-05. Biocompatibility: ISO 10993-5, 10, 11. Non-sterile, single-use, disposable.
Indications for Use
Indicated for use as a protective barrier on the examiner's hands to prevent contamination between patient and examiner. Tested for use with specific chemotherapy drugs per ASTM D6978-05 (2019). Warning: Do not use with Carmustine and Thiotepa.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A non-powdered patient examination glove is a disposable device intended for medical purposes that is worn on the examiner's hand or finger to prevent contamination between patient and examiner. A non-powdered patient examination glove does not incorporate powder for purposes other than manufacturing. The final finished glove includes only residual powder from manufacturing.

Dear Kewin Tham:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
{1}------------------------------------------------
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reportingcombination-products); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

These dimensional differences does not introduce any new risk to the device. Nor does it affect the device's safety and effectiveness.
# 5. Biocompatibility- Cytotoxicity ISO 10993-5
The subject device exhibited "severe" reactivity at 100% concentration and no cytotoxic effect at 10% concentration. Whereas, for the predicate device, at 100% extraction the cell viability was 17.1%.. To demonstrate the safety of the materials the sponsor elected to perform a systemic toxicity study in which the device was found to be non-toxic.
# 6. Physical Properties - Elongation
The subject device which complies with ASTM D6319-19 was found to be Before aging: min 500% After aging: min 400% Whereas, the predicate device which complies with ASTM D6319-19 at nominal conditions was ≥ 500%
These differences do not affect the device's performance or safety and effectiveness.
