It
has been known for many years that microorganisms can grow and proliferate on
textile material. Other than clothes, the objects that humans mostly contact
with are their mattresses. In this study, it was aimed to produce an
antibacterial film in order to prevent growth and proliferation of various
bacteria which are dangerous for human health in mattresses and to make
mattresses hygienic since they cannot be changed in a short time. In the study, extracts were first obtained from Saponaria officinalis L., Oxalis acetosella L., Althaea officinalis L., Lavandula officinalis L., Aesculus hippocastanum L., Thymus vulgaris L., Syzygium aromaticum (L.) Merr at Perry plants. The extracts were
used individually and combined to form experimental groups. The antibacterial
effects of the extracts were examined by disc-diffusion method applied on
Gram-positive rods, Gram-negative rods, Gram-positive cocci and Bacilli
colonies obtained from mattresses. In addition, the colony counts were also
carried out in total MAB culture. Based on the results of the study, it was determined
that S. aromaticum and L. officinalis + all extracts had the
highest inhibitory effect. By using S.
aromaticum extract, xanthan gum, propylene glycol, tween-20 and distilled
water, an antibacterial film, which may provide long-term hygiene in
mattresses, was produced. The obtained gel was lyophilized and made available
for use. As a result of this study, it was foreseen that with the development
of the obtained product, 4-5 million people (e.g., dorm, hospital, hotel) could
be protected from the diseases transmitted from mattresses, the money spent on
the chemicals used for hygiene and the damages caused by these chemicals on
human and environmental health could be reduced, mattresses used for long
periods of time could be made healthy, and mattresses can be made hygienic in a
cost-effective, practical and natural manner.
