ANTIBACTERIAL AND ANTIFUNGAL COTTON FABRIC
Original language description
Cellulose-Nano TiO2 dispersion was coated on the surface of cotton fabric by roller padding for antibacterial and antifungal properties. Morphology of coated cotton fabric was observed under scanning electron microscope. The characteristic peak at 25.4° in X-ray diffraction patterns confirms that TiO2 was coated successfully. Maximum 98.2% reduction of Staphylococcus aureus bacteria and 81.6% reduction of Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) bacteria was observed on TiO2-cellulose coated cotton fabric. Mixture of Penicillium digitatum (PHI26), Rhizopus stolonifer (CCM F-445), Cladosporium sphaerospermum (CCM F-351) and Chaetomium globosum (CCM 8156) fungi was used for antifungal testing and cultivation was carried out at room temperature for two weeks under daylight. The surface of agar in the Petri dishes was completely covered with fungi (filamentous hyphae forming the mycelium) in the first 4 days. However, the filamentous hyphae (mycelium) started to lose from the surface over the second week. Finally, the samples containing the titanium dioxide of 5 and 10% was most cleared.
