PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide water containing a metal ion that has an antimicrobial function or is essential to a human body.SOLUTION: Metal ion water is provided, which contains at least a complex anion and has an antimicrobial function and which is obtained by agitating a plastic film having a coating of a metal selected from silver, copper, and zinc, in a diluted citric acid solution as a solvent. If necessary, the metal ion water is adjusted into weak acidity by use of a pH adjustor. A packaging material having an antimicrobial function is obtained by immersing a fabric with the metal ion water, drying and cutting the fabric. A fabric or fiber product carrying copper ion water is provided, which has an insect repelling function. Metal ion water containing metals essential for maintaining good health of a human body, such as iron, zinc, chromium, selenium, manganese, and molybdenum, is provided, in which at least a part of the above metals is included as a metal complex anion and the metal ion water is buffered with a pH adjustor containing a metal if necessary.COPYRIGHT: (C)2016,JPO&INPIT【課題】抗微生物機能を有する、或いは人体に必須な金属のイオン水の提供。【解決手段】希クエン酸溶液を溶媒とし、銀、銅、亜鉛から選択される金属を皮膜としたプラスチックフィルムを、該溶媒内で撹拌することにより得られる、少なくとも錯陰イオンを含有し抗微生物機能を有する金属イオン水。必要な場合はpH調整剤で弱酸性に調整する。該金属イオン水に布地を含浸させ乾燥の後断裁した抗微生物機能を有する包装材。又銅イオン水を担持させた布地・繊維製品は虫・昆虫忌避機能も有する布地・繊維製品。更に、鉄、亜鉛、クロム、セレン、マンガン、モリブデンといった人の健康維持に必須とされる金属が少なくとも一部が金属錯陰イオンとして含有され、時には金属系も含めたpH調整剤でバッファーされた金属イオン水。【選択図】なし
