• Surface modification of plant fibers using environment friendly methods for their application in polymer composites, textile industry and antimicrobial activities: A review (2013, background): “The increased amino groups in plasmaactivated–chitosan-treated samples increase the probability that a protonated amino group met the bioplasm of the bacteria and resulted in a greater bacterial reduction capacity [108].”
• Recent Advances in Antimicrobial Treatments of Textiles (2008, methodology): “To improve durability, chitosan has been crosslinked to cotton using chemicals such as dimethyloldihydroxyethyleneurea (DMDHEU), citric acid, 1,2,3,4-butanetetracarboxylic acid (BTCA) or glutaric dialdehyde [16, 17, 89, 90].”
