Comparison between antibacterial activity of some natural dyes and silver nanoparticles
Source abstract
Abstract
Curcuma longa rhizome (turmeric), walnut, and henna are medicinal plants which are traditionally used for fiber colorations. In this study, the viscose rayon fabrics were dyed with different mordant at a variety of conditions. The dyed fabric and treated fabric with Ag nanoparticles were evaluated for antibacterial activity against pathogenic strain of Gram-negative ( Escherichia coli ) bacteria. Durability of antibacterial activity to laundering was also investigated. The results indicated that treated fabrics with these natural dyes had excellent antibacterial activity as well as Ag nanoparticles before and after wash.
