  <description><![CDATA[ The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is issuing a final rule 
to improve the barrier quality of medical gloves marketed in the United 
States. The rule will accomplish this by reducing the current 
acceptable quality levels (AQLs) for leaks and visual defects observed 
during FDA testing of medical gloves. By reducing the AQLs for medical 
gloves, FDA will also harmonize its AQLs with consensus standards 
developed by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 
and ASTM International (ASTM).
