This book explores the innovative use of natural plant extracts for antibacterial finishing of textiles, focusing on the molecular analysis and phytochemical properties of various plants such as Punica Granatum, Syzygium Aromaticum, Musa Paradisiaca, and Ocimum Sanctum. It provides a comprehensive study of the antibacterial and aroma-enhancing properties of these extracts when applied to cotton and silk fabrics, and also:

- Explores the use of natural plant extracts for antibacterial finishing of textiles.

- Provides molecular analysis and phytochemical characterization of plants.

- Investigates the aroma-enhancing properties of plant extracts on fabrics.

- Highlights sustainable and eco-friendly textile finishing techniques.

- Includes detailed studies on cotton and silk fabric applications.
