1 천연향균물질 (Natural Antibacterial Materials)

2 원적외선 방사물질 (Far-infrared Radiation Materials)

3 향균성 나노물질 (Antibacterial Nanoparticles - Ag, ZnO, TiO2, etc)
Starch + Silver Nanoparticles (TEM)

Antimicrobial activities of silver nanoparticles
1) Destruction of cell membrane by contacting silver nanoparticles
2) Inhibition of cell membrane
3) Leading of DNA destruction & hindrance of proteins by
    penetrating in cell
Antimicrobial activities of oxygen free radical
1) Formation of oxygen free radical due to silver ion oxidizing
    water molecules
2) Destruction of cell structure by oxidizing effect of oxygen
    free radical
Zinc Oxide (TEM)

Antimicrobial activities of silver ion
1) Formation of silver ion for partial oxidation of silver
    nanoparticle
2) Inflow silver ion in cell and Inhibition of synthesizing proteins
3) Leading of DNA destruction by combining with DNA
Antimicrobial activities of silver nanoparticles in external cell
1) Inhibition of biofilm occurrence for interrupting to growing
    hypha
2) Effect of leading Apoptosis
