N2  - The first step in the production of safe latex products is to get latex having low nitrosamine/nitrosatables. The design of the curative system with sulphur and a combination of safe accelerators along with zinc oxide is the key factor for the production of latex articles which can be categorized under safe category. In this study, the effect of different latex concentrates, formulations and processes on the final nitrosamine content of the product was analyzed. The variations in results from laboratory to laboratory for this critical test are also discussed
