Özet

An increasing amount of research work has been directed to limiting the use of synthetic biocides for preventing microorganism formation on finished leather, and the develop of more suitable substitute products. Much of this work has been directed towards the protective effects of natural bioactive materials.1,2,3,4 The know antibacterial impact of storax against a variety of bacteria has now put this technology on the leather industry research agenda. In the present study, Sigla (Liquidambar orientalis Mill.var orientalis) storax was investigated for antibacterial activity during the soaking float. In this investigation, 1%, 2%, 5% of storax and 1% essential oil of Origanum onites mixed with the storax were tested for their antimicrobial activity in parallel with 50 % organosulfur compound as commercial bactericides commonly used in the leather industry. The results showed that storax has an antibacterial effect in soaking with increasing concentrating rates and when it is mixed with the oil of oregano, the bactericidal activity was increased. It was found that Sigla Storax contains 1.39% essential oils and styrene accounts for 96.55% of this oil. These findings suggested Sigla storax and oregano essential oil has synergic effect and the mixture of Sigla storax and oregano essential oil could be used as bactericidal agents in leather industry.
