  2. 1. Enzyme Printed Fabrics : Bio‐functionalisation of Synthetic Textiles by Digital Inkjet Printing

    Author : Tuser Biswas; Vincent Nierstrasz; Junchun Yu; Tzanko Tzanov; Högskolan i Borås; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Digital printing; inkjet; enzyme; printhead; rheology; immobilisation; piezoelectric; drop-on-demand; resource-efficient textiles; biological ink; lysozyme; tyrosinase; polyphenol oxidase; polyethylene terephthalate; polyester; polyamide-6; 6; nylon; surface modification; plasma; antimicrobial; antibacterial; Textil och mode generell ; Textiles and Fashion General ;

    Abstract : This thesis explores the possibilities of printing enzymes using resource-efficient technologies to promote the binding of other proteins and biomaterials on synthetic textiles. This strategy can be used to develop advanced textiles for applications, for example, in antimicrobial, drug delivery and biosensing. READ MORE
