Bacteriostatic properties of medical textiles treated with nanomaterials based on Fe₂O₃

Abstract

The purpose of this work is to reveal the bacteriostatic properties of medical textiles treated with magnetite nanoparticles. Cotton materials with a surface density of 120 g/m2 were used as textile materials. The mixture of magnetite nanoparticles is applied to the textile material. The characteristic of such a textile material is Q - Force per unit area of material from a magnet with an induction of 1 Tesla at a distance of 1 cm. A broth-based nutrient solution was prepared, which was impregnated with textile samples. The growth rate of such fungi is inversely proportional to the bacteriostatic properties of the material. Visual observation of the growth of molds in Petri dishes showed a significant difference in their growth efficiency depending on the saturation of the material with magnetite. Microscopic studies showed the lengths of molds grown on different samples of textile material. The content of magnetite in a textile material significantly affects its bacteriostatic properties. This makes it possible to recommend such materials as promising medicines for the treatment of purulent wounds.
