Abstract
A systematic study is currently demonstrated approach for approving the superior role of silver and palladium metallic particles in acting the role of mordant with acquiring the dyed cotton fabrics excellence in color fastness with additional functions of antimicrobial potentiality and UV-protection action. Whereas, samples were dyed with extract of red peanuts skin as natural textile colorant (RPN dye). The represented data revealed that, in absence of mordant, the samples treated with metal precursors prior to dyeing were exhibited with the excellent color strength, color fastness, antimicrobial action and UV-protection action. Color fastness (washing, rubbing and light fastness) was estimated to be in the range of very good-excellent. Sample pretreated with silver salt and dyed in the absence of mordant was graded with excellent UV-protection action (UPF 31.5, UVB T% 2.6% and UVB blocking percent 97.4%). Antimicrobial potency against E. coli, S. aureus and Candida albicans through inhibition zone and the reduction percent was approved to be in the range of excellence (93.01-99.51%) for the samples dyed in absence of mordant and pretreated with either silver or palladium precursors.

Abstract
Electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding paper with durability and high effectiveness is of significant importance to long-term service for preventing EMI pollution. Herein, we report a practical method for preparing cellulose paper/Ag composite with outstanding durable and ultrahigh EMI shielding performance by electroless silver plating. The silver deposition process, the surface morphology, the silver content and conductivity of the composite can be controlled by varying the amount of N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC) grafted onto the cellulose fibers and ammonia amount for silver-ammonia complex formation. Moreover, the grafted NAC with thiol groups on cellulose can enhance the adhesion between silver and cellulose paper, meanwhile, NAC as the reducing agent can result in a more complete flower-shaped silver structure and reducing the reflection of electromagnetic waves in silver layer. The composite exhibited excellent conductivity, EMI shielding effectiveness (SE) up to 106 dB and outstanding durability. After 10,000 bending times and 60 abrasion cycles respectively, the electrical resistance of the composite only increased from 0.030 Ω/sq. to 0.041 Ω/sq. and 0.050 Ω/sq., and the EMI SE decreased to 102 dB and 105 dB.

Protein Adsorption, Calcium-Binding Ability, and Biocompatibility of Silver Nanoparticle-Loaded Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA) Hydrogels Using Bone Marrow-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells. Pharmaceutics 2023; 15:1843. [PMID: 37514030 PMCID: PMC10384843 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics15071843] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/24/2023] [Revised: 06/19/2023] [Accepted: 06/24/2023] [Indexed: 07/30/2023] Open
Abstract
Several approaches have evolved to facilitate the exploration of hydrogel systems in biomedical research. In this sense, poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) has been widely used in hydrogel (HG) fabrication for several therapeutic applications. The biological properties of PVA hydrogels (PVA-HGs) are highly dependent on their interaction with protein receptors and extracellular matrix (mainly calcium) deposition, for which there is not enough evidence from existing research yet. Thus, for the first time, the functional properties, like protein and mineral interactions, related to the proliferation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) by silver nanoparticle (AgNP)-loaded PVA hydrogels (AgNPs-PVA-HGs) were investigated in the present study. The UV absorption spectrum and TEM microscopic results showed a maximum absorbance of synthesized AgNPs at 409 nm, with an average particle size of 14.5 ± 2.5 nm, respectively. The functional properties, such as the calcium-binding and the protein adsorption of PVA-HG, were accelerated by incorporating AgNPs; however, the swelling properties of the HGs were reduced by AgNPs, which might be due to the masking of the free functional groups (hydroxyl groups of PVA) by AgNPs. SEM images showed the presence of AgNPs with a more porous structure in the HGs. The proliferative effect of MSCs increased over culture time from day 1 to day 7, and the cell proliferative effect was upregulated by HGs with more pronounced AgNPs-PVA-HG. In addition, both HGs did not produce any significant cytotoxicity in the MSCs. The histological (bright light and H&E staining) and fluorescence microscopic images showed the presence of a cytoskeleton and the fibrillar structure of the MSCs, and the cells adhered more firmly to all HGs. More fibrillar bipolar and dense fibrillar structures were seen in the day 1 and day 7 cultures, respectively. Interestingly, the MSCs cultured on AgNPs-PVA-HG produced extracellular matrix deposition on day 7. Accordingly, the present results proved the biocompatibility of AgNPs-PVA-HG as a suitable system for culturing mammalian stem cells for regenerative tissue applications.

Abstract
This review highlights the different modes of synthesizing silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) from their elemental state to particle format and their mechanism of action against multidrug-resistant and biofilm-forming bacterial pathogens. Various studies have demonstrated that the AgNPs cause oxidative stress, protein dysfunction, membrane disruption, and DNA damage in bacteria, ultimately leading to bacterial death. AgNPs have also been found to alter the adhesion of bacterial cells to prevent biofilm formation. The benefits of using AgNPs in medicine are, to some extent, counter-weighted by their toxic effect on humans and the environment. In this review, we have compiled recent studies demonstrating the antibacterial activity of AgNPs, and we are discussing the known mechanisms of action of AgNPs against bacterial pathogens. Ongoing clinical trials involving AgNPs are briefly presented. A particular focus is placed on the mechanism of interaction of AgNPs with bacterial biofilms, which are a significant pathogenicity determinant. A brief overview of the use of AgNPs in other medical applications (e.g., diagnostics, promotion of wound healing) and the non-medical sectors is presented. Finally, current drawbacks and limitations of AgNPs use in medicine are discussed, and perspectives for the improved future use of functionalized AgNPs in medical applications are presented.

Abstract
Cotton is the most widely used natural fiber for textiles but its innate capacity to absorb moisture, retain oxygen, and high specific surface area make it more prone to microbial contamination, becoming an appropriate medium for the growth of bacteria and fungi. In recent years, the incorporation of silver nanoparticles in textile products has been widely used due to their broad-spectrum antibacterial activity and low toxicity towards mammalian cells. The aim of the current study is to synthesize and characterize a nanocomposite based on silver nanoparticles and carboxymethyl chitosan (AgNPs-CMC), which was utilized to provide a functional finish to cotton fabric. The scanning electron microscope (SEM) to produce a scanning transmission electron microscope (STEM) image showed that the nanocomposite presents AgNPs with a 5–20 nm size. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis confirmed the presence of silver nanoparticles. The concentration of silver in the functionalized fabric was evaluated by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES), which reported an average concentration of 13.5 mg of silver per kg of functionalized fabric. SEM showed that silver nanoparticles present a uniform distribution on the surface of the functionalized cotton fabric fibers. On the other hand, by infrared spectroscopy, it was observed that the functionalized fabric variation (compared to control) had a displaced peak of intensity at 1594.32 cm−1, corresponding to carboxylate anions. Similarly, Raman spectroscopy showed an intense peak at 1592.84 cm−1, which corresponds to the primary amino group of carboxymethyl chitosan, and a peak at 1371.5 cm−1 corresponding to the carboxylic anions. Finally, the physical and mechanical tests of tensile strength and color index of the functional fabric reported that it was no different (p ˃ 0.05) than the control fabric. Our results demonstrate that we have obtained an improved functionalized cotton fabric using green chemistry that does not alter intrinsic properties of the fabric and has the potential to be utilized in the manufacturing of hospital garments.

Abstract
The current work presented a green synthetic route for the fabrication of silver nanoparticles obtained from aqueous solutions of silver nitrate using Cordyline fruticosa L. leaf extract (Col) as a reducing and capping agent for the first time. The bio-synthesized silver nanoparticles (AgCol) were investigated using UV-visible spectroscopy (UV-vis), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA). The obtained data demonstrated that AgCol in spherical shape with an average size of 28.5 nm were highly crystalline and well capped by phytocompounds from the Col extract. Moreover, the bio-synthesized AgCol also exhibited the effective antibacterial activities against six pathogenic bacteria, including Escherichia coli (E. coli), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa), Salmonella enterica (S. enterica), Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus), Bacillus cereus (B. cereus) and Enterococcus faecalis (E. faecalis). The AgCol were applied as an antibacterial finishing agent for viscose fabric using a pad-dry curing technique. The AgCol-treated viscose fabrics exhibited a good synergistic antimicrobial activity against E. coli and S. aureus bacteria. Furthermore, the silk fibroin regenerated from Bombyx mori cocoon waste was utilized as an ecofriendly binder for the immobilization of AgCol on the viscose fabric. Thus, the antimicrobial efficacy of the AgCol and fibroin modified viscose fabric still reached 99.99% against the tested bacteria, even after 30 washing cycles. The colorimetric property, morphology, elemental composition, and distribution of AgCol on the treated fabrics were investigated using several analysis tools, including colorimetry, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS), Kjeldahl, and FTIR. Because of the excellent antimicrobial efficiency and laundering durability, as well as the green synthesis method, the AgCol and fibroin modified viscose fabric could be utilized as an antibacterial material in sportswear and medical textile applications.

Cotton is the most widely used natural fiber for textiles; however, the capacity of cotton fibers to absorb large amounts of moisture, retain oxygen, and have a high specific surface area makes them more prone to microbial contamination, becoming an appropriate medium for the growth of bacteria and fungi. In recent years, the incorporation of silver nanoparticles in textile products has been widely used due to their broad-spectrum antibacterial activity and low toxicity towards mammalian cells. The aim of the current study is to continue the assessment of our developed nanocomposite and evaluate the antibacterial and antifungal activity of the nanocomposite based on silver nanoparticles and carboxymethyl chitosan (AgNPs-CMC) against Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Candida albicans, evaluated by the well diffusion method. The antibacterial activity against E. coli and S. aureus was also evaluated by the qualitative method of inhibition zone and the quantitative method of colony counting. Likewise, the antifungal activity of the functionalized fabric against Candida albicans and Aspergillus niger was determined by the inhibition zone method and the antifungal activity method GBT 24346-2009, respectively. The functionalized fabric showed 100% antibacterial activity against E. coli and S. aureus and good antifungal activity against C. albicans and A. niger. Our results indicate that the functionalized fabric could be used in garments for hospital use to reduce nosocomial infections.

Abstract
Nanotechnology has provided a platform for altering, modifying, and developing metal properties to nanoparticles with promising applications. This study aimed to produce functionalized and biocompatible silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using cellular extracts of endophytic Fusarium oxysporum-NFW16 isolated from Taxus fauna and evaluate its antibacterial potential. Under optimized reaction conditions, well-dispersed and extremely stable AgNPs were synthesized in 1 hr. AgNPs were characterized through UV-visible spectrophotometry (at 423 nm), and scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The obtained AgNPs were spherical, monodispersed, and size was ~30-36.1 nm. Strong peaks of XRD (311), (220), (200), and (111) matched to silver plane's diffraction facets. FTIR spectra at 1,650, 2,950, and 1,400 cm-1 confirmed the capping of AgNPs with phenolic compounds and compounds having primary amines. The AgNPs showed 100 μg/ml of minimum inhibitory concentration against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). In addition, AgNPs showed a synergistic effect with both vancomycin and ciprofloxacin against MRSA (25%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (50%), and pus isolated Escherichia coli (50%). Moreover, AgNPs impregnated cotton and bandage showed in vitro antibacterial potential against American Type Culture Collection and skin-associated clinical pathogenic bacteria. Findings showed that endophytic fungi are the potential source for AgNPs synthesis that are effective against multidrug-resistant bacteria and the development of antimicrobial textile finishes.

Abstract
Cotton is one of the most important cellulose fibers, but the absence of antimicrobial capacity along with the self-cleaning, UV protection and electric conductivity often frustrates its wider applications in many fields. Nanotechnology has provided new insights into the development of functional nanomaterials with unique chemical and physical properties. Silver has been effectively incorporated into the cotton fabrics as the antimicrobial agents due to the strong inhibitory and antimicrobial effects on a broad spectrum of bacteria, fungi and virus with low toxicity to human being. In this review, a variety of strategies have been summarized to load silver on cotton fabrics in situ or ex situ and to fabricate high performance value-added cotton fabrics with self-cleaning, UV protection, electric conductivity and antimicrobial capability depending on the synthesis of silver coating or silver-based nanocomposite coating.

Abstract
This study aimed to evaluate the durability of the photocatalytic and antimicrobial activities of ZnO and TiO2 nanoparticles (NPs)-modified 100% cotton terry textiles. SEM-EDX confirmed the long-lasting durability of the washing materials, and TGA analysis revealed that ZnO and TiO2 NPs can be found on the terry fabric surface; however, the amount of NPs decreased 10 times after 15 washes and 1.6 times after the subsequent 15 washes. The efficiency of self-cleaning properties and antimicrobial activity against five microorganisms (Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 6538, Escherichia coli ATCC 10536, Candida albicans ATCC 10231, Aspergillus niger ATCC 16404, and Bacillus subtilis NCAIM 01644) depended on UVA/B radiation intensity. The increase in UVA/B radiation intensity from 400 to 1400 µW/cm2 significantly increases the effectiveness of photocatalysis. Long-lasting self-cleaning properties characterised the tested fabric; however, stronger photocatalytic efficiency was observed in light with a greater intensity of UVA/B radiation. At the UVA/B radiation intensity of 1400 µW/cm2, a biocidal effect (R = 100%) against all tested microorganisms (E. coli, S. aureus. B. subtilis, C. albicans, and A. niger) was observed on the surface of materials. The lower UVA/B radiation intensity (400 µW/cm2) and 30 wash cycles reduce the antimicrobial activity of the material (R = 65.4–99.4%) for B. subtilis, C. albicans, and A. niger. The antimicrobial activity of washed materials modified with TiO2/ZnO nanoparticles can be increased by irradiation with a light bulb (1400 µW/cm2).

Abstract
Plasmonic cotton gauze-Ag composite were fabricated through a simple, instant and cost-effective way, in which the Ag NPs were immobilized on the surface of cotton gauze through in-situ growth process. The in-situ growth of Ag NPs was started from electroless-immobilized Ag seeds on the surface of cotton fiber, which could form numerous hot spots for SERS compared with current method. The cotton gauze-Ag composite was employed as versatile substrate in surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) spectroscopy. The plasmonic cotton gauze-Ag exhibited excellent uniformity, temporal stability and enhanced effect for SERS measurement. The detection limit of P-aminothiopheno (PATP) was 10-8 M. Furthermore, the plasmonic cotton gauze-Ag composite presented excellent flexibility and adsorption capability, which enable to adsorb and detect pesticide residue from irregular surface of cucumber directly by simple swabbing process, the detection limit could achieve 0.1 ppm. The cotton gauze-Ag composite also shown excellent selectivity is SERS sensing. The fabrication method could be simply extended to other cellulose compound, such as absorbent cotton, paper and even for natural fibers. This study proposed a new method for fabricating the cost-effective, eco-friendly and flexible SERS substrates.

Abstract
The lack of antibacterial properties limits the application of bacterial cellulose hydrogels in wound dressings. To overcome this deficiency, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were introduced as antibacterial agents into a polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)/bacterial cellulose (BC) solution. A freeze-thaw method promoted formation of PVA/BC/Ag hydrogels and improved their mechanical properties. The physicochemical and biological properties of this hydrogel were systematically characterized. Those results showed the hydrogels contained a porous three-dimensional reticulum structure and had high mechanical properties. Also, the hydrogels possessed outstanding antibacterial properties and good biocompatibilities. More importantly, it effectively repaired wound defects in mice models and wound healing reached 97.89% within 15 days, and far exceeded other groups and indicated its potential for use in wound treatment applications.

Biosynthesis of silver nano-drug using Juniperus excelsa and its synergistic antibacterial activity against multidrug-resistant bacteria for wound dressing applications. 3 Biotech 2021; 11:255. [PMID: 33987072 DOI: 10.1007/s13205-021-02782-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/17/2020] [Accepted: 04/05/2021] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
We report here the synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) from an aqueous extract of Juniperus excelsa and their use as an antimicrobial agent on their own or in combination with antibiotics in inhibiting multidrug-resistant bacteria (MDR). One strategy of bacterial infection control in wound healing is AgNP biosynthesis. We collected bacterial strains of patient skin infections from Al-Adwani Hospital. Phenotyping, biotyping, and molecular characterizations were applied using 16S rRNA gene analysis of bacterial isolates. Our results identified tested MDR bacteria Staphylococcus aureus strains (methicillin-resistant and methicillin-susceptible) and Proteus mirabilis. Gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) analysis was used to identify the Juniperus excelsa biomolecules in the leaf extract acting as both reducing and capping agents in the biosynthesis of AgNPs. The AgNPs appeared hexagonal and spherical in shape upon transmission electron microscope (TEM) analysis. The AgNP sizes ranged from 16.08 to 24.42 nm. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis confirmed the crystalline nature of the particles. The minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of the AgNPs against the tested MDR bacteria ranged from 48 to 56 µg/ml, while the minimum bactericidal concentrations (MBCs) of the AgNPs against the tested strains ranged from 72 to 96 µg/ml. The AgNPs showed a good synergistic efficacy with Cefaclor, Cefoxitin, and Erythromycin. Their efficiency showed a threefold increase in the inhibition of tested strains when used in wound dressing, due to the AgNPs potentially activating the antibiotics. Consequently, we can use AgNPs with Cefaclor, Cefoxitin, and Erythromycin antibiotics as alternative antimicrobial agents, and they could be utilized in wound dressing to prevent microbial infections.

Abstract
In this approach, we assembled AgNps on cotton by using iota-carrageenan as a carbohydrate polymer under ultrasonic waves. UV-Vis spectroscopy revealed that iota-carrageenan free radicals increased the absorbance values of AgNps at 438 nm under ultrasonic vibration. We also observed an effective reduction of AgNps by color hue changes in the colloidal dispersions, ranging from pale to dark yellow. Interestingly, the zeta potential values for the AgNps changed from -8.5 to -45.7 mV after incorporation with iota-carrageenan. Moreover, iota-carrageenan reduced the average particle sizes of AgNps/iota-carrageenan nanocomposite particles. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectra proved the successful fabrication of AgNps/iota-carrageenan/cotton nanocomposites by shifting two bands at 3257 and 990 cm-1. Quantum Chemistry and Molecular Dynamics demonstrated strong interactions between AgNps and iota-carrageenan by changes in the bond lengths for CC, CH, CO, SO. Furthermore, new energy levels were generated in iota-carrageenan's molecules by exciting electrons under ultrasonic vibration. According to the thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA) results, fabrication of AgNps/iota-carrageenan on cotton reduced the thermal stability of the resultant AgNps/iota-carrageenan/cotton nanocomposites. The average friction coefficient values of nanocomposite samples were increased in weft-to-warp direction that can be an advantage for wound healing, antimicrobial treatment and drug delivery applications. We did not observe reduction in the mechanical properties of our AgNps incorporated nanocomposites. Furthermore, the samples were tested for possible cytotoxicity against primary human skin fibroblast cells and no toxicity was observed.

Abstract
"Maskne" is a new term coined during the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic. It refers to a subset of acne mechanica, deserving consideration in view of widespread reusable fabric mask-wearing to control the pandemic worldwide. Understanding of underlying pathophysiology directly relates to the novel skin microenvironment and textile-skin friction created by mask-wearing, distinct from nontextile-related acne mechanica previously linked to wearing of headgear. Specifically, the occlusive microenvironment leads to microbiome dysbiosis, which is linked to various dermatological conditions. Additional textile-skin interactions include factors such as breathability, stickiness sensations, moisture saturation, and hygiene maintenance. Increased skin temperatures can trigger sweat/heat-related dermatoses, and ear loops potentially trigger pressure-induced dermatoses. Important therapeutic considerations include increased skin irritation potential of conventional acne treatments under occlusion, exacerbation of chronic dermatoses, that is, perioral dermatitis, rosacea, and eczema, and susceptibility of these same patient groups to heightened discomfort with mask-wearing. Cotton, as the traditional fabric of choice for dermatology patients, has limited benefits in the context of face masks - increased subjective discomfort relates to increased moisture saturation and stickiness, inevitable because of high biofluid load of the nasal and oral orifices. Prolonged textile-skin contact time, directly proportional to the risk of maskne, can be an opportunity for the application of biofunctional textiles.

Abstract
Silver (Ag)/silver chloride (AgCl) nanoparticles have been used worldwide for their antimicrobial activity. Proteases play an important role in many physiological processes during wound healing. Therefore, the aim of this study was to fabricate silver-type nanoparticles exhibiting protease activity for medical applications such as wound healing and dressings. The Ag/AgCl nanoparticles were fabricated using Bacillus sp. protease and visible light activation. The size of the fabricated nanoparticles was estimated to be 35.29 ± 6.43 nm. The nanoparticles were coated on a cotton gauze bandage using immersion and ultrasonication. Scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy confirmed that the nanoparticles could be used to coat the gauze bandage. Synchrotron radiation X-ray tomographic microscopy indicated that coating with the nanoparticles did not destroy the packing of cotton fibers in the gauze bandage. The nanoparticles exhibited fibrinolytic and collagenolytic activities. Protease activity remained after the nanoparticle coating was applied to the gauze bandage. The nanoparticles were not absorbed on a gelatin agar plate after incubation at 37 °C for 18 H. These results suggest that the coated cotton gauze bandage may be safe for further use, and the nanoparticles may not be absorbed into animal or human skin.

Abstract
It is believed of great interest to incorporate silver nanoparticles (Ag-NPs) into stable supported materials using biological methods to control the adverse properties of nanoscale particles. In this study, in-situ biofabrication of Ag-NPs using Entada spiralis (E. spiralis) aqueous extract in Ceiba pentandra (C. pentandra) fiber as supporting material was used in which, the E. spiralis extract acted as both reducing and stabilizing agents to incorporate Ag-NPs in the C. pentandra fiber. The properties of Ag-NPs incorporated in the C. pentandra fiber (C. pentandra/Ag-NPs) were characterized using UV-visible spectroscopy (UV-vis), X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Field Emission Transmission Electron Microscope (FETEM), Scanning Electron Microscope (Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDX), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), Thermogravimetric (TGA) and Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) analyses. The average size of Ag-NPs measured using FETEM image was 4.74 nm spherical in shape. The C. pentandra/Ag-NPs was easily separated after application, and could control the release of Ag-NPs to the environment due to its strong attachment in C. pentandra fiber. The C. pentandra/Ag-NPs exposed good qualitative and quantitative antibacterial activities against Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC 25923), Enterococcus faecalis (ATCC 29212), Escherichia coli (ATCC 25922) and Proteus vulgaris (ATCC 33420). The dye catalytic properties of C. pentandra/Ag-NPs revealed the dye reduction time in which it was completed within 4 min for 20 mg/L rhodamine B and 20 min for 20 mg/L methylene blue dye, respectively. Based on the results, it is evident that C. pentandra/Ag-NPs are potentially promising to be applied in wound healing, textile, wastewater treatment, food packaging, labeling and biomedical fields.

Abstract
Cotton fibre has been widely used for clothing applications since thousand years ago. However, the products made of cotton fibre can be easily deteriorated by microoganisms due to its natural feature and moisture affinity. This will lead to loss of mechanical strength as well as hygiene problems. Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) have shown antimicrobial effects on many microorganisms. Due to the lack of bonding between ZnO and cotton fabric and improve mechanical strength, PVA is applied onto ZnO and cotton fabric by dip coating. In this study, the presence of ZnO NPs are determined by SEM and XRD. The crystal size of ZnO NPs are approximately 25 ~ 35 nm. The optimum tensile strength occurred at 0.20 M ZnO and 15 g PVA. The antibacterial efficiency against S. aureus is tested by disc diffusion test. It found that increased ZnO NPs and PVA concentration, increased inhibition zone and thus showed good antibacterial activity.

Abstract
Healthy body is one of the principle requirements of human beings, but the highly rated growth of harmful pathogens has challenged researchers for investigation of antimicrobial reagents. Infection of textile materials is a result of microbial adherence on the surface, and it is one of the vital clinical complications, which causes a high rate of mortality. New challenges as well as new opportunities in manufacturing of antimicrobial cellulosic textiles are the future concerns for textile and apparel industry. The major applications of antimicrobial textile could be ascribed according consumer demands, represented in more comfort, easy care, health, and durable to laundering. Such numerous properties could be achieved by the development of innovative methodologies with various finishing agents. Thus, the current review introduced an overview for the application of recent organic antimicrobial reagents in cellulosic textile finishing. The organic reagents are classified into two main categories; natural (chitosan, cyclodextrins and natural dyes) and synthetic (quaternary ammonium salts, triclosan, halogenated phenols and metal organic frameworks). The interaction between cellulose and such reagents, biological action mechanisms and factors affecting biocidal actions are all presented. For improvement of the durability and mechanical properties, pre-activation of cellulosic textile or using of cross-linkers is properly performed.

Abstract
Natural fibers with functionalities have attracted considerable attention. However, developing facile and versatile strategies to modify natural fibers is still a challenge. In this study, cotton fibers, the most widely used natural fibers, were partially oxidized by sodium periodate in aqueous solution, to give oxidized cotton fibers containing multiple aldehyde groups on their surface. Then poly(hexamethylene guanidine) was chemically grafted onto the oxidized cotton fibers forming Schiff bases between the terminal amines of poly(hexamethylene guanidine) and the aldehyde groups of oxidized cotton fibers. Finally, carbon-nitrogen double bonds were reduced by sodium cyanoborohydride, to bound poly(hexamethylene guanidine) covalently to the surface of cotton fibers. These functionalized fibers show strong and persistent antibacterial activity: complete inhibition against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus was maintained even after 1000 consecutive washing in distilled water. On the other hand, cotton fibers with only physically adsorbed poly(hexamethylene guanidine) lost their antibacterial activity entirely after a few washes. According to Cell Counting Kit-8 assay and hemolytic analysis, toxicity did not significantly increase after chemical modification. Attributing to the hydrophilicity of poly(hexamethylene guanidine) coatings, the modified cotton fibers were also more hygroscopic compared to untreated cotton fibers, which can improve the comfort of the fabrics made of modified cotton fibers. This study provides a facile and versatile strategy to prepare modified polysaccharide natural fibers with durable antibacterial activity, biosecurity, and comfortable touch.

Abstract
In this report, we designed and synthesized polyacrylonitrile/silver (PAN/AgNPs) nanofibers via an in-situ method to obtain a washable with high-dispersed silver nanoparticles membrane to form the hierarchically organized antibacterial mask to prevent the two-way effect of bacteria from person to environment and environment to person. For this objective, the electrospun PAN nanofibers were stabilized via the heating method. Different amounts of AgNPs were loaded into the PAN nanofibers by using silver nitrate and sodium hydroxide solutions. The basic results showed that AgNPs was homogenously loaded in PAN nanofiber matrixes. Furthermore, the release profile based on two-stage release theory showed that when the negligible amount of AgNPs was loaded into the nanofibers, the release significantly decreased, whereas antibacterial activity increased. The greatest potential antibacterial activity of the lowest amount of AgNPs showed controllable AgNPs release from PAN nanofibers that has a direct relationship with the washability and could promote the application of the produced product.

Abstract
In situ synthesis of Ag/AgX nanoparticles (NPs) onto viscose fibers adds new functionalities and broadens their applications. In this study, Ag/AgX (X = Cl, I) NPs were in situ synthesized onto viscose fibers to impart brilliant colors, UV-protection, antimicrobial, self-cleaning, and photocatalytic properties. The AgX NPs were deposited on the fibers by ultrasonic irradiation, while Ag-NPs were formed by photoreduction of excess Ag+ ions under UV irradiation. The Ag/AgX NPs-loaded onto viscose fibers endowed with pale yellow for Ag/AgI and pale purple/violet for Ag/AgCl. The colored viscose fibers showed excellent antimicrobial activity against Escherichia coli (gram-negative), Staphylococcus aureus (Gram positive), and Candida Albican. The Ag/AgX/viscose fiber also showed excellent photocatalytic and self-cleaning activity toward degradation of methylene blue.

Abstract
The spread of antibiotic resistance and increasing prevalence of biofilm-associated infections is driving demand for new means to treat bacterial infection. Nanotechnology provides an innovative platform for addressing this challenge, with potential to manage even infections involving multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria. The current review summarizes recent progress over the last 2 years in the field of antibacterial nanodrugs, and describes their unique properties, mode of action and activity against MDR bacteria and biofilms. Biocompatibility and commercialization are also discussed. As opposed to the more common division of nanoparticles (NPs) into organic- and inorganic-based materials, this review classifies NPs into two functional categories. The first includes NPs exhibiting intrinsic antibacterial properties and the second is devoted to NPs serving as a cargo for delivering antibacterial agents. Antibacterial nanomaterials used to decorate medical devices and implants are reviewed here as well.

Abstract
In this study, we present a successful simple method for printing and finishing of polyester and cotton fabrics using gold and silver nanoparticles (Au-NPs and Ag-NPs, respectively) as stable, fast colorants and functional components. The surface plasmon resonance (SPR) bands of the colloidal gold and silver NPs were observed at λmax 520 nm and 450 nm, respectively, indicating the presence of spherical Au-NPs and Ag-NPs, which was further confirmed by TEM analysis. The printed samples were subjected to SEM, XRD and EDX analyses. The SEM images and EDX spectra unequivocally confirmed the existence of embedded NPs on the fabric surfaces. Both the cotton and polyester samples possessed excellent color fastness, as indicated from the color fastness test. The functional properties of the printed fabrics indicated that the incorporation of Au-NPs and Ag-NPs into the fabrics simultaneously imparted multifunctional properties such as stable brilliant colors, highly durable antimicrobial activity and very good UV-protection properties. In this study, we present a successful simple method for printing and finishing of polyester and cotton fabrics using gold and silver nanoparticles (Au-NPs and Ag-NPs, respectively) as stable, fast colorants and functional components.![]()

Abstract
Metal/metal oxide containing fibres are gradually increasing in textile industrialization recently, owing to their high potential for application as antimicrobial textiles. In this study, the reducing properties of cellulose were applied to synthesize cuprous oxide in-situ. The direct formation of Cu2O on viscose fabrics was achieved via quite simple technique in two subsequent steps: alkalization and sorption. Cu contents in fabrics before and after rinsing ranged between 45.2-86.4mmol/kg and 18.1-67.7mmol/kg, respectively. Uniform micro-needles of Cu2O were obtained with regular size and dimensions of 1.60±0.20μm in length and 0.13±0.03μm in width. Release of Cu1+/2+ ions from selected samples was studied in water, physiological fluid and artificial sweat. Copper containing fabrics exhibited a percent of 96.8-97.8% and 85.5-89.0% for reduction in microbial viability, which was tested for S. aureus (as gram positive bacteria), E. coli (as gram-negative bacteria) and C. albicans and A. niger (as fungal species), respectively after 24h contact time.

Abstract
Sensitivity of dyes' colors to the surrounding environment causes lower durability and stability of color, which reflects the importance of durable finishing treatment. Current technique offered antimicrobial/durable finishing of viscose fibers through direct formation of AuNPs inside fibers macromolecules without using any external agents. By using the reducing properties of cellulose in viscose, Au+3 was reduced to AuNPs and CHO/OH of cellulose subsequently were oxidized to COOH. For comparison, two different media were used; aqueous and alkaline. Increasing the reactivity and accessibility of cellulose macromolecules in alkali leaded to enlargement of the reduction process and more incorporation of AuNPs. Size of AuNPs inside fiber was recorded to be in range of 22-112nm and 14-100nm, in case of using aqueous and alkaline medium, respectively. Structure and properties of fibers were not changed by treatment according to XRD and ATR-FTIR data. The treated fibers were acquired durable violet color by the action of LSPR for AuNPs and darker color obtained using higher Au+3 concentration. The treated fibers exhibited good inhibition against different pathogenic microbes including bacteria and fungi. One-pot, quite simple, inexpensive, green and industrial viable are the significant advantages of the current technique for viscose finishing (pigmentation and antimicrobial action).

Abstract
Fiber shedding is a critical problem in biomedical textile debridement materials, which leads to infection and impairs wound healing. In this work, single fiber pull-out test was proposed as an in vitro evaluation for the fiber shedding property of a textile pile debridement material. Samples with different structural design (pile densities, numbers of ground yarns and coating times) were prepared and estimated under this testing method. Results show that single fiber pull-out test offers an appropriate in vitro evaluation for the fiber shedding property of textile pile debridement materials. Pull-out force for samples without back-coating exhibited a slight escalating trend with the supplement in pile density and number of ground yarn plies, while back-coating process significantly raised the single fiber pull-out force. For fiber shedding mechanism analysis, typical pull-out behavior and failure modes of the single fiber pull-out test were analyzed in detail. Three failure modes were found in this study, i.e., fiber slippage, coating point rupture and fiber breakage. In summary, to obtain samples with desirable fiber shedding property, fabric structural design, preparation process and raw materials selection should be taken into full consideration.
