TY - JOUR T1 - TENCEL® with a Microbial Barrier for Medical Bras JO - Journal of Fiber Bioengineering and Informatics VL - 4 SP - 635 EP - 643 PY - 2015 DA - 2015/08 SN - 8 DO - http://doi.org/doi:10.3993/jfbim00153 UR - https://global-sci.org/intro/article_detail/jfbi/4745.html KW - TENCEL® Microbial Barrier KW - Medical Bra KW - 3D Scanning KW - Clothing Construction AB - The goal of the research was to determine the properties of the microbial barrier TENCEL® knitted fabrics intended for medical bras. The samples were tested according to a new method developed in the earlier research by the same authors. The most resistant forms of microorganisms of a pathogenic bacterial endospore of the Bacilllus genus were used to investigate microbial barrier permeability. Based on the samples tested and their characteristics, medical bra construction was developed with the aim of reducing irritation for the body part that underwent surgery. The data on the forms and measures were obtained using a 3D body scanner.
