This invention is about textiles which are equipped with antifungal, anticandidal and antibacterial properties. The aim of the invention is to attain antimicrobial textiles which reduces the incidence of infections communicated or spread by textiles, reduces the loss of extra cost and energy to ensure hygiene and strengthens the hygienic condition of disposable textiles. Textiles can be equipped with antimicrobial properties in three ways: In the first method, sodium borate is dissolved in methanol and is then fixed to the fabric. In the second method, sodium borate is dissolved in water and is then sprayed onto the fabric. In the third method, sodium borate dissolved in water and mixed with textile dye and applied as a dye. Antimicrobial properties of sodium borate are tested on 38 bacterial species, 9 yeasts and 1 1 fungi isolates based on disc diffusion assay.
