“…2,3 While of interest for textile end applications, much less is known about how these fibers/textiles such as viscose behave in use, particularly in relation to their interactions with the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) known to be present in human body odor. Results from two investigations which included viscose have been published: in one, t-shirt patches of fabric from viscose were worn, and using human sensory detection responses, were similar to cotton; 4 and in the second, viscose (spun rayon) standard fabric was spiked with a mix of VOCs, and detection instrumentally showed rather high recovered VOC concentrations, with apparent confounding effects of fabric structure. 5 Recent direct headspace measurement studies by our group 6,7 using proton transfer reaction-mass spectrometry (PTR-MS), assessed the adsorption characteristics of six VOCs present in human body odor by cotton, wool and polyester fibers/yarns.…”

Understanding odor volatiles known to constitute those emanating from the human body and how these interact with textiles is relevant to diverse interested parties because of changing fiber use, a better understanding of apparel life cycles including cleaning and the potential for fiber/textile re-use. This paper extends the application of our proton transfer reaction-mass spectrometry model system on adsorption and release behavior of fiber types typical of next-to-skin uses to include both viscose and other volatile organic compounds in body odor for which release has not previously been studied (hexanoic acid, acetone, cyclohexanone, hexanal, methyl butanoate, ethyl benzene, 1-octanol, decanal, butanoic acid). The current findings confirmed release patterns of different fiber types found in our earlier studies – low release of volatile organic compounds from cotton and wool, but higher release from polyester – and made a new finding of low release from viscose. Adsorption characteristics were different given the different volatile organic compounds analyzed. Viscose showed better adsorption characteristics for primarily polar volatile organic compounds, but was otherwise very similar to cotton.

Sickle cell anaemia (SCA) has been recognized as a serious genetic disorder throughout the World. This genetic abnormality arises at the sixth position of β-chain of haemoglobin, where amino acid valine is replaced by glutamic acid. SCA has already been announced as an endemic in Chhattisgarh state. Chhattisgarh is well known for its enriched source of herbal plants. People use herbal system of medicine for the management of sickle cell anaemia. Folk healers have sound knowledge of herbal and food plants and they have been practicing such nutraceuticals on sickle anaemic patients for many years. Present review is all about reported and traditional herb. Moreover, we have performed phytochemical screening of some traditional herbs which are being used by the healer's. on the basis of screening data we have compared the bio-constituents of both reported and traditional herbs. Thus, the present work has encompassed review as well as comparative data. This paper will be beneficial for the new budding researchers for the further assessment of such plants for their anti-sickling activity.

“…Despite odor control being one purported benefit of an antimicrobial, 116 there are surprisingly few studies that have examined odor control of antimicrobial treated textiles. 34,37,56,[117][118][119][120] Many standard test methods for evaluating the antimicrobial activity of textile products against selected bacterial strains exist and have been reviewed elsewhere. 114,121 Claims of odor control based solely on the basis of such in vitro tests are not appropriate as antimicrobial activity does not always indicate odor reduction.…”

“…120,125 This dual-action property was also noted in finishes from plant extracts that have been used to reduce odor within fabrics made from natural fibers. 36,37,119 Lee and colleagues investigated the antimicrobial properties of fabrics dyed with immature pine cones 37 and myrrh. 36 In both studies, there was evidence that the dyes did impart antimicrobial properties on the fabrics, but in these studies, the reduction in odor was unrelated to antimicrobial performance as the ISO test method was used to measure deodorant properties which is based on the fabrics' ability to sorb odorants in the ambient air.…”

During use, textile items can develop unpleasant odors that arise from many different sources, both internal and external to the human body. Laundering is not always effective at removing odors, with odor potentially building up over time due to incomplete removal of soils and odorous compounds and/or malodors transferred during the laundering process. Textile odor can lead to consumer dissatisfaction, particularly as there are high expectations that clothing and textile products meet multiple aesthetic and functional needs. The problem of odor in textiles is complex and multi-faceted, with odorous volatile compounds, microorganisms, and precursors to odor, such as sweat, being transferred to, and retained by, fabrics. This article reviews the literature that specifically relates to odor within textiles. Methods for evaluating odor in textiles, including methods for collecting odor on textile substrates, as well as sensory and instrumental methods of odor detection, were reviewed. Literature that examined differences among fabrics that varied by fabric properties were reviewed. As well, the effectiveness of specific odor controlling finishing technologies to control malodor within textiles was also examined.
