- Studies on the Maildew Proofing of Silk Fabrics by Growth of Aspergillus fumigatus and Penicillum citrinum -

견섬유에 번식하는 Aspergillus fumigatus와 Penicillium citrinum에 대한 방미제의 항균효과

Aspergillus fumigatus(AF) and Penicillum citrinum(PC) were selected for their strong abilities to produce protease. The result are summarized as follows; 1. The λd numerical values of the silk fabrics with AF and PC were 560 and 580 nm for the both stains of molds. 2. By the growth of molds, lightness, original color scale, and grey scale of the fabrics gradually decreased while chroma increased. 3. The minimum inhibitory concentrations of mold proofing agents, such as Leperon WL, 8-hydroxyquinoline copper acetates, trimethylol melamine and dimethly ethylene urea was 50 ppm. 4. Glycoxale was not effective at the abovely concentration. Since Leperon WL, dimethyl ethylene urea effectively inhibited the growth of PC silk, tensile strengh and elongation of the fabrics were not changed.
