cze Antimikrobiální efekt solí oxidované celulózy Antimikrobiální valstnosti solí oxidované celulózy a její soli v lintrové textilní a mikrosférické formě byly testovány diluční metodou na spektru různých mikrobiálních druhů. OKCEL Ag-L vykazoval silné antimikrobiální účinky. OKCEL Zn-T byl účinný pro všechny testované druhy mikroorganismů. antimikrobiální vlastnosti, MIC, oxidovaná celulóza, Ag soli, Zn soli
eng Antimicrobial effect of oxidized cellulose salts Antimicrobial properties of oxidized cellulose and its salts in linters (-L) and microsphere (-M) form (OKCEL(R) H-L, OKCEL(R) Zn-M, OKCEL(R) ZnNa-L, OKCEL(R) ZnNa-M and OKCEL(R) Ag-L) were tested by a dilution method against a spectrum of microbial strains: Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Bacillus licheniformis, Aspergillus niger, Penicillium chrysogenum, Rhizopus oryzae, Scopulariopsis brevicaulis, Candida albicans and Candida tropicalis. OKCEL(R) Ag-L exhibited antimicrobial activity in the range 0.1-3.5% w/v against all the bacteria and fungi involved in this study. Strong inhibition by OKCEL(R) ZnNa-M was observed for Staphylococcus epidermidis, Bacillus licheniformis, Rhizopus oryzae, Candida albicans and Candida tropicalis in the range 0.5-2.0% w/v. Antimicrobial effects of oxidized cellulose and its salts in textile form were investigated by a diffusion and dilution method against the spectrum of above-cited microbial strains extended by Clostridium perfringens. Generally, OKCEL(R) Ag-T, OKCEL(R) Zn-T and OKCEL(R) H-T showed high antimicrobial activity against populations of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Bacillus licheniformis and Staphylococcus epidermidis. OKCEL(R) Zn-T was the only sample suppressing the growth of species. Antimicrobial properties; Minimal inhibition concentration; Oxidized cellulose; Silver salts; Zinc salts
