Introduction
Congratulations on taking a big step towards improving the economies of scale, quality and speed of your microarray cleanroom research. This booklet contains a complete set of illustrations and protocols outlining the steps and principles needed to use Arrayit Microarray Cleanroom Nitrile Gloves (MCGS, MCGM, MCGL, and MCGXL).

Quality Control
Arrayit assures the performance of this product line. The finest scientific research was used development of this product line. Rigorous quality control monitoring on a lot-by-lot basis guarantees that Arrayit cleanroom gloves conform to the highest cleanroom industry standards.

Product Description
Arrayit's Microarray Cleanroom Gloves (Cat. MCGS, MCGM, MCGL and MCGXL) provide the highest quality synthetic nitrile cleanroom gloves at an affordable price, and are free of the latex proteins that can severely contaminate cleanrooms if normal latex gloves are used. All of our cleanroom gloves are packaged in class 10 cleanrooms, eliminating particulates, proteases, nucleases and other contaminants that impair the quality of microarray experimentation. Compare our cleanroom nitrile gloves with traditional laboratory gloves and you will see the difference.

Technical Note
Federal Cleanroom Standard 209E defines and evaluates cleanrooms based on the number of particles of 0.5 µm diameter or larger present per cubic foot of cleanroom air, and those same standards are used to benchmark Arrayit’s microarray cleanrooms and cleanroom products. Class 1, 10, 100, 1,000 and 10,000 cleanrooms contain fewer than 1, 10, 100, 1,000 and 10,000 particles per cubic foot, respectively. Arrayit Microarray Cleanroom Gloves (Cat. MCGS, MCGM, MCGL, and MCGXL) are packaged in class 10 cleanrooms. The ambient air in a traditional research laboratory contains up to 1,000,000 particles per cubic foot depending on the facility.

Short Protocol (Steps 1-6)
1. Remove the Arrayit Microarray Cleanroom Nitrile Gloves from the shipping box.
2. Decontaminate the anti-static packaging with 100% ethanol.
3. Decontaminate the anti-static packaging with particle-free forced air.
4. Transport the Arrayit Microarray Cleanroom Nitrile Gloves into the cleanroom changing room.
5. Transport the Arrayit Microarray Cleanroom Nitrile Gloves into the cleanroom.
6. Open the zip-lock package and use gloves as needed.

Complete Protocol (Steps 1-6)
1. Remove the Arrayit Microarray Cleanroom Nitrile Gloves from the shipping box. The packaging material is a silver-colored anti-static bag that prevents electrostatic and particle contamination of the gloves. Do not open the anti-static bag until inside the changing room of a cleanroom. Arrayit Microarray Cleanroom Nitrile Gloves also provide an excellent source of gloves for many non-cleanroom applications including the handling of microarray pins and printheads, microarrayers, scanners, microscopes, and other scientific instrumentation and equipment. For non-cleanroom applications, open the anti-static package and use as needed.

2. Decontaminate the anti-static packaging with 100% ethanol. Cover your hands with Arrayit Microarray Cleanroom Nitrile Gloves, wet a cleanroom wipe liberally with 100% ethanol, and wipe the outside of the silver anti-static package to remove particulates and other forms of debris. Do not open zip-lock package until inside the cleanroom changing area.

3. Decontaminate the anti-static packaging with particle-free forced air. For Class 1, 10, 100 and 1,000 cleanrooms, the anti-static package should also be decontaminated with a filtered source of pressurized, oil-free air prior to entry into the cleanroom changing room. Forced air removes additional contaminating particles prior to entering the cleanroom facility. Make certain to wear Arrayit Microarray Cleanroom Nitrile Gloves at all times when handling the decontaminated, anti-static packaging material. Failure to wear suitable hand protection will introduce hand oils, ribonucleases, and other contaminants into the cleanroom.

4. Transport the Arrayit Microarray Cleanroom Nitrile Gloves into the cleanroom changing room. Make certain to remove shoes, sweaters, and other non-essential clothing prior to entering the cleanroom. Arrayit Microarray Cleanroom Nitrile Gloves or equivalent hand coverings should also be worn at all times when inside a cleanroom. Step into a Microarray Cleanroom Suit, making sure that the appropriate cleansuit size (S, M, L, XL, 2XL or 3XL) has been selected. Close the cleansuit by zipping the front completely, and make certain that the elastic wrist and ankle bands are positioned properly. Face shields and other respiratory devices can also be worn to provide additional containment against contamination.

5. Transport the Arrayit Microarray Cleanroom Nitrile Gloves into the cleanroom. Store the packaged gloves on an appropriate shelf or bench top away from heat sources until ready to use.

6. Open the zip-lock package and use gloves as needed. Place the opened zip-lock package on a benchtop or cleanroom shelf and use as needed to handle microarrayers, scanners, pins and printheads. Gloves should be worn at all times, and double gloves can be used in cases where frequent glove changes are required or for heavy tasks. Gloves should also be worn for hand protection when cleaning minor spills, and for topical cleaning of benches and other cleanroom surfaces. Arrayit Microarray Cleanroom Nitrile Gloves are disposable and soiled gloves can be discarded in the regular cleanroom waste containers. The synthetic nitrile material should never be exposed to sources of open flame.

Troubleshooting Tips
Trouble donning gloves:

  • Hands contain moisture or perspiration. Make sure your hands are completely dry before donning gloves. Use double gloves if frequent glove changes are required.

Tearing gloves exposes bare hands:

  • Use double gloves to prevent exposure of bare hands, and change outer glove layer as necessary during lifting or other manual tasks.
