Abstract
The main objective of this research work is to find the best quality fabric that has good antimicrobial properties for the antimicrobial activity. Antimicrobial is an agent that used to stop the development of microbes and sometime its kill's microbes. Two types of fabrics are used for the experimentation: one is cotton and other is bamboo fabric. Moreover, these fabrics are treated with different concentration of Silver nanopartilces. After the treatment of Silver nanopartilces on both fabrics, the samples are checked with respect to the tensile strength, contact angel, CIE whiteness and antimicrobial tests. The results show that the cotton samples shows better than that of bamboo in both the cases: before and after washing
