[직/편성물 염색] A novel bioactive fabric dyed with unripe Citrus grandis Osbeck extract part 1: dyeing properties and antimicrobial activity on cotton knit fabrics 출판일 : 2010.12.01 저자 : Eunjou Yi, Eun Sook Yoo 서지사항 : Textile Research Journal, Volume 80, Issue 20, 2117 페이지 등록일 : 2011.04.13 I 조회수 : 90 작성자 : admin |
In order to explore the potential use of Citrus grandis Osbeck in biomedical applications for
improving human’s skin health, cotton knit fabric was dyed with the citrus extract under
varied conditions including temperature, duration, pH, and dye concentration and evaluated
for fastness and antimicrobial activity. The fabric was optimized for maximum dye uptake at a
pH of 3, dyeing temperature of 60°C, dyeing duration of 60 min, and dye concentration of
800% owf. The dye fastness to rubbing, washing, perspiration, and light were reasonably
good for 800% owf dyed fabrics. In terms of antimicrobial efficacy, fabric dyed with the high
concentration showed excellent bacterial reduction rates against Staphylococcus aureus
for up to five repetitions of laundering, which implies there is a need to improve antimicrobial
durability. In a following work, the optimally dyed fabric will be tested for in-vivo dermal
effects.
