Sažetak
The objective of this work was to determine the influence of washing and sterilization under real hospital conditions on properties of microbial barrier offered by polyurethane coated fabrics used in surgery and for wrapping sterile items. Emphasis was put on the change of surface polyurethane coating by using FTIR analysis. The permeability and durability of the microbial barrier were determined after 0, 10, and 20 washing and sterilization procedures according to previously developed methods. Bacterial endospores of the apathogenic species of the genus Bacillus Geobacillus stearothermophilus and Bacillus atrophaeus were used. Mechanical damage to medical textiles in the washing and sterilization process was determined according to standard HRN EN ISO 13914-1:2008 and associated with changes in physical and mechanical properties. Chemical changes of PU coatings were determined using FTIR analysis. The results showed an exceptionally efficient microbial barrier and its durability in all samples after 0, 10 and 20 washing and sterilization procedures and for a period of one, two and three months.
