ANTIMICROBIAL EFFICIENCY OF BIO& ndash SYNTHESISED NANOSILVER FINISHED VISCOSE SPUNLACE NON WOVEN FABRIC

Resmi. G, Dr. S. Amsamani

Abstract :

 Silver is a renowned antimicrobial agent used on textiles from very ancient time till date. A very small quantity of silver is required to inhibit a very wide range of pathogenic microorganisms. Application of silver in nano size on textile substrate has enhanced the antimicrobial efficiency of textiles. Biosynthesis of silver is simple and less hazardous and this green technology is having advantage over chemicals methods. Silver nanoparticles were prepared with plant extracts and were applied on viscose spun lace non–woven faic. The treated faic shows excellent antimicrobial activity towards E. coli, S. aureus, C. albicans, A. niger.
