Abstract
This study examines the residual rubber chemicals commonly used in natural rubber (NR) latex formulation and their effects on the biocompatibility of finished products. Several in-house compounds differing in chemical compositions were prepared and analysed for their physical properties residual chemicals and biocompatibility. From this an optimum formulation with low residual chemical content and acceptable physical properties was selected as a model design. In vitro cytotoxicity elution tests with L 929 fibroblasts showed all sample extracts to be poorly biocompatible.
