The present work was carried out with an objective to study the physical property of control and treated samples were tested to analyze the effect of Karanja extracts on the samples. The Shirley thickness tester was used to determine thickness of controlled', samples treated with both extracts of Karanja in both viscous and dry state; and antiseptic treated samples in both concentrations using BS 2544: 1967 test method. A specimen size of 5"×5". The tests were performed for different types of samples viz., control (scoured), samples treated with leaves and seed extracts in viscous and dry state; and samples treated with an antiseptic containing chloroxylenol. The samples were subjected to test for fabric thickness (mm). It was concluded that as the concentration of extract increased, thickness (mm) of all treated samples increased significantly. A 1% level significant increase in thickness (mm) was observed in all treated samples as compared to the control sample.

The antimicrobial finishing of textiles has attracted research attention lately due to demands for a healthy lifestyle. As a result, several synthetic and natural antimicrobial agents for textiles have been developed over the years. Recently research into antimicrobials agents of natural origin have become more popular due to their enormous therapeutic potential and effectiveness in the treatment of infectious diseases while mitigating the side effects of the synthetic antimicrobials. Research into these natural biocides for textiles has seen increasing consumers awareness for two reasons, namely the potential negative impact of synthetic biocides on health versus the benefits of natural biocides, and the increasing rate of microbial resistance to most natural biocides. The immense literature on natural biocides suggests the preparedness of the research community and industry in addressing the environmental and health challenges associated with synthetic antimicrobial agents in response to the new consumer demands. This review focuses on the advances in natural antimicrobial agents and various methods of their application. Literature suggest that natural antimicrobial agents have chalked some success in terms of efficacy and wash durability, with minimal effect on the tensile strength of fabrics.
