ABSTRACT:
An easily sterilizable glove system for use for performing work within a glove box or similar sealed enclosure within which operations are carried out under sterile conditions. The shoulder end of an elongated arm-length impermeable leak-proof flexible sleeve having a flexible impermeable leak-proof glove at the wrist end is held clamped between a smooth surfaced annular lip in a port in the wall of the enclosure and a compressed O-ring. The minimal area of sealing contact between two smooth surfaces is easily sterilized by the vaporous sterilants commonly used. Preferably the glove is separable and replaceable and similarly held between a smooth surfaced annular lip in a port at the wrist end of the sleeve and the compressed bead at the cuff of the glove, defining another easily sterilizable minimal area of sealing contact.
