| Abstract | ||
| The textile industry is addressing pollution by utilizing mint extract as an environmentally friendly alternative to natural dyes. Mint extract has antimicrobial properties, increased durability, and thermal protection, making it ideal for the perfume and pharmaceutical industries. It can be extracted using various methods, including ultrasound, microwave, and enzyme-assisted extractions. Mint extract has antibacterial properties, such as inhibiting Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. It can also be used as a bioactive agent on textile substrates and has antiredox properties. However, the use of low biodegradable ionic silver may induce toxic effects. Solvent applications are beneficial for these applications, as they change the high content of essential oils in people, making them available at low prices without toxic effects. | ||
