Synthesis, Characterization and Biological Evaluation of Triclosan Grafted onto Cellulosic Fibers

With the increased risk of disease transmissions and cross-infection caused by microorganisms, the control of microbial infections becomes a very important issue in modern societies. Moreover, with the emergence of antibio-resistant bacterial strains, it is necessary to control the bacterial growth. One of ways to limit the bacterial proliferation is to develop antimicrobial surfaces. The present work describes the synthesis process of a direct...
