Abstract :This work reports on dyeing of nylon/elastane fabric with water-soluble phthalocyanines insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(1-4); bearing quinoline 5-sulfonic acid substituents on the peripheral or nonperipheral positions and determining the antibacterial efficiency of the phthalocyanine compounds and the dyed nylon/elastane fabrics. The light, washing, water, perspiration, and rubbing fastness properties of nylon/elastane fabrics dyed with phthalocyanines were also determined. The results showed that all dyed fabrics showed very good wet fastness values. The lightfastness value of the nylon/elastane fabric dyed with phthalocyanine dye insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(1); showed a much better value than the others. Also, the antibacterial efficiencies of the dyed nylon fabrics and the dye compounds were investigated against a gram-negative insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Escherichia coli); and a grampositive insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Staphylococcus aureus); bacteria by using disc diffusion method. The results showed that the dyed nylon/elastane fabrics and the compounds exhibited antibacterial activities against both bacteria.
