Device performance verified via watertight testing (1000 ml), physical property testing (tensile strength, elongation), and biocompatibility testing (dermal irritation, sensitization). ## Clinical Evidence Bench testing only. Performance data includes watertight (1000 ml) testing, physical property testing (tensile strength, ultimate elongation before/after aging), and powder content analysis. Biocompatibility testing included Primary Dermal Irritation and Guinea Pig Sensitization (Buehler) tests. All results met ASTM D6319-00a53 and FDA requirements. ## Technological Characteristics Material: Nitrile rubber; powdered with absorbable dusting powder. Dimensions: 240 mm minimum length; various palm widths. Thickness: 0.08 mm minimum. Standards: ASTM D6319-00a53.
