항 식중독균성 수건 및 행주를 개발하기 위하여 이질풀 추출액 1%로 50-60에서 60분간 염색한 면직물의 염색성과 항균성을 조사하였다. 면직물의 표면색은 무매염, 명반 매염, 수산화칼슘 매염시는 그레이-옐로우로 황색계열을 나타냈으며, 황산구리 매염시는 그레이-브라운, 황산제1철 매염시는 그레이드-그린으로 나타났다. 이질풀 추출액으로 염색한 면직물의 hue 값은 20회 세탁까지는 Y계열을 나타내었으며, 30회와 40회 세탁시는 YR계열을 나타내었다. 이질풀 추출액으로 염색한 면직물은 황색포도상구균, 대장균 및 살모넬라균에 대해 무세탁시 모두 99.99%의 항균성을 보였다 세탁 30회 후의 항균성은 52.91%이상을 나타내었다.
This study was conducted to develop antibacterial hand towel and dishcloth against food poisoning bacteria, and to examine the dyeability and the antibacterial activity of cotton fabrics against food poisoning bacteria, which was dyed with 1 % extracts of Geranium nepalense at 50 to 60℃ minutes. Surface colors of cotton fabrics treated nothing, alum [AIK(SO4)2·nH2O], and calcium hydroxide [Ca(OH)2] with mordants showed grayed-yellow group, that treated copper sulfate (CUSO4) with mordant was grey-brown group, and that treated sulfate of iron (FeSO4·7H2O) made grayed-green group. Hue value of cotton fabrics dyed with the extracts of Geranium nepalense and dried until twenty times was an order of descent Y, that dried thirty to forty an order of descent YR. Cotton fabrics dyed with the extracts of Geranium nepalense had the antibacterial activity against food poisoning bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coil and Salmonella typhimurium by over 99.99%. And that dried over thirty times showed the antibacterial activities against food poisoning bacteria by 52.91%.
