DC Exam Gloves
Matrx Medical is proud to announce the introduc- tion of its new DC Exam Gloves. Matrx DC Exam Gloves exceed all FDA, ASTM and BSI standards for latex surgical gloves.
While most latex gloves
are produced with a single centrifuge process, Matrx gloves are produced with a double centrifuge process. This unique process re- moves 6 to 7 percent more of the total solids content of the natural rubber latex material.
Matrx also employs a new chemical compound- ing process which elimi- nates the "latex taste" found to be offensive by most patients, as well as helping to eliminate the "latex smell" left on hands after use.

uct, PROHEAT, TM a porta- ble, reusable, instant heatpack which has al- ready earned the accep- tance of more than 102 professional sports train- ers in the NBA and NFL, is also proving its worth in emergency rescue and vari- ous other health-related sit- uations, according to David Wastchak, vice presi- dent of product develop- ment at Pro Health, Inc.
