What can be a consequence of using pesticide gloves that absorb chemicals?

Using pesticide gloves that absorb chemicals can lead to potential exposure through the skin. When gloves are made from materials that soak up or retain pesticide residues, they can allow for the transfer of these harmful substances onto the skin during handling or after the gloves are removed. This can result in dermal exposure, which may lead to adverse health effects depending on the toxicity of the chemicals involved. Therefore, it is crucial to use appropriate gloves that are designed to be resistant to chemical permeation and to evaluate the materials of the gloves to ensure they do not pose a risk of absorbing pesticides, thus preventing potential health hazards to the user.
