| Abstract | Nano-Cu2O particles were synthesized on cotton fabric using CuSO4 as a precursor and glucose as a reducing and capping agent in alkali. The morphology, crystal phase and chemical structure of the fabrics were characterized by scanning electron microscope, X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. The colorimetric values of the treated fabrics were also measured using reflectance spectra. The treated fabrics showed significant photocatalytic activity toward the degradation of methylene blue under daylight. Excellent antibacterial activity of the treated samples against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli was also confirmed. Moreover, treated fabrics were proven to have no adverse effects (low toxicity) on human dermal fibroblasts based on the MTT test. Findings suggested the potential of the proposed method in producing a fabric with high antibacterial efficiency, excellent self-cleaning properties, faster wetting time and negligible color change. Bleached cotton fabric treated with 0.02 w/w% copper sulfate and 0.35 w/w% glucose in alkali media (0.35 w/w% sodium hydroxide) at 70 °C for 1 h was found to be the optimum sample, with many applications in various fields including clothing, medical clothing and bedding. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
