Clothing for Protection against Contact with Blood and Body Fluids — Determination of the Resistance of Protective Clothing Materials to Penetration by Blood and Body Fluids — Test Method Using Synthetic Blood
1 Scope
This standard specifies a laboratory test method for measuring the penetration resistance of clothing materials to blood and body fluids. This test method uses a synthetic blood in continuous contact with the material specimen at specified set of conditions using the YY/T 0699 test apparatus.
This test method is not always effective in testing protective clothing materials having thick, inner liners which readily absorb the synthetic blood.
