Antimicrobial properties of piper betle on cotton fabrics / Nurul Atiqah Abdul Bari
Current antimicrobial treated fabrics available in the market are mostly treated with chemical antimicrobial agent which brings negative impact to the environment and human’s health. In this study, the effectiveness of piper betle extract on cotton fabric was evaluated. In addition, this study also...
