“…Natural antimicrobials were used to inhibit the growth of bacteria and mould in the fabric. Use of synthetic dyes has become faster acceptability in the field of food (Torskangerpoll and Andersen, 2005), cosmetic (Taylor et al , 1996) and more importantly in the field of textile industries (Vončina et al , 2007). The manufacturers preferred the dyes because of easy dyeing process, variation of shades, colour fastness properties as compared to natural dyes.…”

Purpose The study reported in this paper aims to synthesize some new curcumin containing sulphadiazine and sulphathiazole dyestuffs and study their application in dyeing silk fabrics rendering the dyed fabric antibacterial. Design/methodology/approach Simultaneous dyeing and antibacterial finishing for silk fabric using a new antibacterial acid dye having a modified chemical structure to curcumin were conducted. This modification of curcumin dye was carried out by introducing sulphonamide containing heterocyclic rings sulphadiazine and sulfathiazole through coupling with curcumin. All newly synthesized dyes were characterized by elemental analyses and spectral data (IR, 1H-NMR and MS). The dyeing characteristics of these dyestuffs were evaluated at optimum conditions. Antibacterial activities of the dyed samples at different concentrations of both dyes were studied against gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus) and gram-negative (Salmonella typhimurium) bacteria. Findings The synthesized curcumin-containing sulphonamide dyes were applied on silk fabrics. The modified dyes exhibited good fastness properties compared to curcumin dye at optimum conditions. It was found that synthesized dyes exhibit good fastness and antibacterial properties efficient against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. The dyed silk fabrics showed higher antibacterial efficacy after many times of washing. Originality/value Curcumin, a common natural dye used for fabric and food colouration, was used as an antimicrobial finish due to its bactericidal properties on dyed textiles. A common dyeing process could provide textiles with colour as well as antimicrobial properties. Novel antibacterial dyestuff containing curcumin moieties with sulphonamide coupler components were shown to be an interesting natural colorant for silk with high antimicrobial ability of the dyed silk fabrics. This work has afforded a new acid dye that can be used in medical textile.

“…Hypersensitivity to strawberry fruit (Fragaria × ananassa), due to cross-reactivity with antibodies developed against birch (Betula verrucosa) pollen allergens, is commonly reported among the general population, but only a few studies have been reported. − The main clinical (in vivo) symptoms caused by birch pollen allergen Bet v 1-mediated cross-reactivity are associated with oral allergy syndromes, local reactions such as itching and dermatitis, and rarely systemic symptoms such as contact urticaria, asthma, and anaphylactic shock. , Fra a 1 proteins, homologues of the birch pollen allergen Bet v 1 have been isolated from strawberry fruit, but also genes homologous to profilins (Fra a 4) and lipid transfer proteins (LTP; Fra a 3) have been identified in a strawberry cDNA library, implying that proteins of other allergen families are also expressed in strawberry fruit. It is known that in northern Europe sensitization to Bet v 1 is dominant, and it has been reported that about 30% of patients in northern Europe, with self-reported hypersensitivity to food, also show adverse reactions to strawberry .…”

The strawberry fruit proteins Fra a 1.01E-1.08 are homologues of the major birch pollen allergen Bet v 1. Three of the proteins are known to have essential biological functions in pigment formation during fruit ripening and seem to be responsible for allergic reactions to strawberry fruit. We evaluated the cross-reactive allergenic potential of these putative strawberry allergens in patients allergic to birch pollen. Activation of basophils of eight atopic patients was studied using different concentrations of Fra a 1 isoforms. Bet v 1a was used as control and as atopic patient selection criterion. Although Fra a 1.01E-1.08 have amino acid sequence identities of 74.5-97.5% with Fra a 1.02, the basophil activation mediated by the eight Fra a 1 proteins differed substantially. Fra a 1.03 and Fra a 1.02 showed the highest activation of basophils, 73 and 66% of total basophils, respectively. On the basis of the high relative expression of the gene Fra a 1.02 in ripe strawberry fruits of allergenic varieties, Fra a 1.02 was identified as the main strawberry allergen of the Bet v 1 superfamily. Knowledge of the allergenic potential of Fra a 1.02/1.03 will help to improve food safety and can serve as a valuable marker for the development of red-fruited hypoallergenic strawberry cultivars.

“…However, hypersensitivity to strawberry is a commonly reported but poorly investigated phenomenon, as strawberry has an unjustified reputation among the general population of being an allergenic fruit. Only a few cases of patients with adverse reactions to strawberry are listed in the literature [6–11]. In addition to one case of anaphylaxis, clinical reports only refer to the OAS and urticaria as major symptoms.…”
