It causes more allergic reactions than products made of hard rubber (like tires). 也, 因为有些乳胶手套是涂有玉米淀粉粉的, the latex protein particles stick to the cornstarch and fly into the air when the gloves are taken off or when a balloon might be popped. 在经常戴手套和脱手套的地方, 空气中可能含有许多乳胶颗粒.

The powder used to line disposable gloves and balloons can absorb latex proteins and then become airborne resulting in 哮喘tic reactions among individuals who did not use gloves or touch the balloons but merely inhaled latex-containing dust.

The most serious of the reactions that usually begin within minutes of exposure to latex, 但几小时后会出现各种症状. 很少, anaphylactic shock may occur; but a life-threatening reaction is seldom the first sign of latex allergy.
