How to conduct textile antimicrobial testing - garment manufacture_garment Factory

Antibacterial materials retain the natural antibacterial components of raw materials or impart antibacterial properties to materials by adding antibacterial agents. Antibacterial materials kill or inhibit the reproduction of microorganisms on the surface of the material through contact, making antibacterial products hygienic and self-cleaning, thereby achieving the purpose of long-term hygiene and health, protecting human health to a certain extent and reducing the spread of diseases.

As antibacterial technology becomes increasingly mature, antibacterial technology has been rapidly popularized, and its products cover all areas of people’s daily life and production. There is no obvious difference in appearance between antibacterial products and ordinary products, and due to the small size of microorganisms and their special biochemical characteristics, the current evaluation of the antibacterial performance of antibacterial products can only be implemented with the help of laboratory microbiological testing techniques.
