Abstract
The prevalence of various diseases caused by pathogenic bacteria and their resistance to antibiotics has forced researchers to search for healthy and safe methods to produce products suitable for human well-being with the advent of nanotechnology in the present century, nanomaterials such as silver, gold, zinc, copper and titanium dioxide are used as antimicrobial agents. In this study, the antimicrobial efficacy of cotton samples in in reducing two common strains of Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus, source of eye, skin, bone and joint infections and Gram-negative Escherichia coli, origin of urinary tract infections, nosocomial and blood infections using zinc nanoparticles and harmaline, has been examined for use in children’s doll clothes. Small amounts of antimicrobial test of the samples indicate that in the treated samples the average percentage of bacterial reduction for Gram-positive bacterium Staphylococcus aureus was %96 and Gram-negative Escherichia coli %99. Also, in the doll costume design section, an attempt has been made to be inspired by one of the mythological symbols of Iran (Simorgh)and the designs should be based on it. The research method in this article is descriptive based on the nature, because; there was no intrusion into the information obtained and the results were reported realistically. This research is based on the experimental method, because; a laboratory process is required to prepare the fabric with the desired properties.
