Wondered if I could pick your brains. I have a scientist here who last week was preparing some work she had not done before using certain chemicals. She informs me that the bottles were dry and that she did not get any solution on her gloves. she noticed some tingling and was about to go home anyway so she removed the gloves and washed her hands. The next day she was doing much the same work, but this time her hands became red and swollen and it took nearly 3 hours before the swelling went down. She has been wearing the orange gloves for over a year now without any problems.
My question is, would you get her to wear another pair of orange gloves away from the lab to see if it is the gloves that are the problem or not?
Any advice would be welcome.
thanks
Sue
