Abstract

Ethno-medicinal plants have been studied in view of the demand for safe, eco-friendly alternatives to the use of synthetic antimicrobials in the textile sector. The development of a bioactive finish using the plant Leucas aspera (Thumbai), which is known for its presence of essential secondary metabolites, is the principal focus of the current project. Aqueous solutions were employed for the extraction of Leucas aspera leaves. The components present in these plant extracts were analyzed. In order to allow for ester bond formation between the phenolics in the plant extracts and the cellulose fibers through an environmentally friendly cross-linking reagent like citric acid, the ethanolic extract of the plant was incorporated into the interlock cotton through the use of padding and mangle.
