Development of tick protective textile materials

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

People try to protect themselves against the annoying insects from time out of mind. Ticks are a group of parasites attacking humans and transmitting many diseases, especially Lyme borreliosis, and tick-borne encephalitis. Over the past 30 years, the occurrence of ticks and of tick-borne diseases has increased significantly. The species Ixodes ricinus is present across the whole Europe. For the protection against the tick attack people most often use chemical substances like DEET, permethrin or IR 3535-ethyl butylacetylaminopropionate. These agents are usually used in spray form and can be applied on the skin or on the clothing directly before the „possible" tick attack; the effectiveness is a few hours. Many natural substances derived from plants contain substances which can repel ticks. [2, 3, 4] The work was focused on exploration of two essential oils (eucalyptus and lavender) as the active substances for the functional treatment of textiles with tick repellency. Used essential oils were obtained by steam distillation of plant materials. The efficiency of the tick repellency was tested at NIPH Prague using the conventional assessment methods (Carroll test, Circular test, Fall off method [6]). The microencapsulation technique was used for the protection and slow release of the essential oils. The possibility of using cyclodextrins as the alternative carriers of repellent functional components (essential oils) on the fabric was verified.
