[DIYbio] Re: Will gloves from sandbox cabinet fit to the biosafety class III box?

I'm curious too, after see the price of actual replacement glove box gloves. I've also considered using arm-length cleaning gloves (similar to dishwashing gloves).

I've got some parts from old class III biosafety box and want to re-construct it (why not?), so I wonder if sandbox gloves can be used there. Gloves like this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Sandblasting-protective-gloves-emperor-Mediumweight-ME-107-Industrial-gloves-/152394504337?var=&hash=item237b6b9891:m:mbynRJWZQmDjluj1c3CycVw or http://www.ebay.com/itm/Sandblasting-protective-gloves-60cm-Latex-industrial-glove-blast-cabinet-/351983756267?var=&hash=item51f3dde3eb:m:mrvVoIoxGY5w-M627MJFQqg or http://www.ebay.com/itm/1-PAIRE-GLOVE-SANDBLASTING-PRO-LAT460-/132126635600?var=&hash=item1ec35c7650:m:mWDZu8_5U_wmZPQA25uRXZA

Of course, I won't work there with something BSL 4, but it can make biologists life a lot of easier - no need to worry about contamination from air when seeding cells, bacteria or preparing PCR mix, dNTPs or primers.

And will it be effective without air circulation at all (just closed box: if you want to put something in - UV before, something out - UV after, if not UV sensivive, or UV sensitive parts are protected - UV while in box)? Air hood is heavily damaged (well, demolished...) and needs too much effort.

Thanks a lot!
