If a staff member in a veterinary clinic is allergic to latex, what type of gloves can they use as an alternative?

  1. Latex gloves

  2. Neoprene gloves

  3. Polyethylene gloves

  4. Nitrile gloves

The correct answer is: Nitrile gloves

If a staff member in a veterinary clinic is allergic to latex, they should use nitrile gloves as an alternative. Nitrile gloves are a popular choice for individuals with latex allergies because they do not contain any latex proteins that can trigger an allergic reaction. Neoprene gloves, polyethylene gloves, and of course latex gloves are not suitable alternatives for someone with a latex allergy.
