Antimicrobial Paper Embedded with Nanoparticles as Spread-Breaker for Corona Virus
For combatting the submicroscopic bacteria and
viruses, antimicrobial paper incorporated
with nano particles, can be very eff ective. It
is exigent at the present juncture to use such antimicrobial
papers and products to arrest spread and kill the deadly corona
virus. Diff
erences between SARS-CoV1 and SARS-CoV-2 are explained along with
the survival period of CoV-2 on diff erent
surfaces. The developments taken place
in antibacterial paper and antibacterial
tissue paper to combat the hospital-induced diseases including
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus(MRSA) bacteria (or super bugs) prior to the corona virus epidemics,
have been specifi ed. However,
paper industries engaged in these developments, have taken
this epidemic as opportunity for plunging into manufacturing
antimicrobial paper, having
ability to act as spread-breaker and kill the
corona virus. The diff
erent antibacterial nanoparticles available and procedure for their
embedment in the existing mineral pigments and a new concept
of exchanging these metallic ions inside clay minerals,
such as vermiculite and montmorillonite, has been introduced. Though
production of antibacterial
paper is going on for the last ten years and
production of antimicrobial paper has started, the manufacturing
processes are not disclosed. The
recent developments taken place (in the last 3 months) in antimicrobial
additive and industrial production of antimicrobial
paper in diff
erent parts of the world to combat corona virus, have been brought
out along with their test results in killing corona virus.
The mechanism of silver ion
technology in curbing the growth and killing of
corona virus, is explained [1]. The commercial aspect attributing
to the growth of the
antimicrobial papers, is also briefed here. It is expected that the technical
information, provided in this paper
will help increasing production of
antimicrobial paper in the world and to arrest
the spread of corona virus. (Source: Mahendra Patel, American Journal of Nanotechnology and Nanomedicine, Vol.3, Issue 2, pgs.1-12 (2020)
