Abstract
⺠We compare the effect of two different ambient air plasma treatments on surface properties of polypropylene nonwoven textile. ⺠The plasma modified polypropylene has highly improved sorption properties. ⺠The antimicrobial activity of polypropylene textile loaded with silver ions was evaluated. ⺠The polypropylene loaded with silver ions exhibits antimicrobial activity against tested pathogens. ⺠Escherichia coli is the most sensitive to the Ag loaded polypropylene.
