The present invention discloses a material for an absorbent article having an organic hydrophobic microbial agent and a hydrophilic non-volatile organic solvent. This material for an absorbent article is preferably manufactured by a method having a step in which an antimicrobial solution, obtained by dissolving an organic hydrophobic antimicrobial agent in a hydrophilic non-volatile organic solvent, is applied to a material for an absorbent article. The present invention also discloses an absorbent article in which the material for an absorbent article is used. This absorbent article is preferably manufactured by a method having a step in which an antimicrobial solution, obtained by dissolving an organic hydrophobic antimicrobial agent in a hydrophilic non-volatile organic solvent, is compounded into an absorbent core.本發明揭示一種具有有機疏水性抗菌劑、及親水性且非揮發性之有機溶劑之吸收性物品用材料。該吸收性物品用材料係藉由包括如下步驟之方法而適宜地製造:將使有機疏水性抗菌劑溶解於親水性且非揮發性有機溶劑中而成之抗菌劑溶液應用於吸收性物品用材料。又,本發明亦揭示一種使用上述吸收性物品用材料之吸收性物品。該吸收性物品係藉由包括如下步驟之方法而適宜地製造:使將有機疏水性抗菌劑溶解於親水性且非揮發性之有機溶劑中而成之抗菌劑溶液包含於吸收性芯體中。
