An allergen removal-functional fiber obtained by the processing agent removes allergens by adsorption. The adsorbed allergens, together with the processing agent, can be washed away by washing the fiber, e.g. ordinary cleaning.

Description

本発明は繊維にカチオン系の表面処理を施すことで繊維の表面電位を正に帯電させて負の表面電位を持つダニアレルゲン等の有害タンパク質を繊維表面に吸着除去する機能を持つ繊維処理剤に関するものである。   The present invention relates to a fiber treatment agent having a function of adsorbing and removing harmful proteins such as mite allergen having a negative surface potential by positively charging the surface potential of the fiber by subjecting the fiber to a cationic surface treatment. Is.

近年の高気密高断熱住宅の登場は、我々に快適空間を提供してくれる。しかし、この快適な住宅は換気不足になりやすくダニの増殖に適した環境になってしまうことがある。   The advent of highly airtight and highly insulated houses in recent years provides us with a comfortable space. However, this comfortable house is prone to poor ventilation and may be suitable for the growth of ticks.

アレルギー症状の発症は、生物が持つ免疫反応に由来する。杉花粉やダニの糞等のアレルゲン物質が体内に入ると、この進入タンパク質に対してIgE抗体が作られる。IgE抗体が肥満細胞の表面に結合し、感作となる。再度、これらアレルゲン物質が体内に侵入し、IgE抗体と結合した際には肥満細胞から種々のケミカルメディエータが放出される。これらケミカルメディエータがヒスタミンやロイコトリエンなどである。これらの体内物質が、発熱、発疹、鼻炎、咳等を発症する原因である。これらの症状が強くなると睡眠不足や集中力の低下など我々の経済活動あるいは創造活動に大きな障壁となる。   The onset of allergic symptoms stems from the immune response of the organism. When allergens such as cedar pollen and tick feces enter the body, IgE antibodies are made against this invading protein. IgE antibodies bind to the surface of mast cells and become sensitized. Again, when these allergen substances enter the body and bind to IgE antibodies, various chemical mediators are released from mast cells. These chemical mediators are histamine and leukotriene. These internal substances are the cause of developing fever, rash, rhinitis, cough and the like. When these symptoms become stronger, it becomes a major barrier to our economic or creative activities such as lack of sleep and reduced concentration.

飛散したアレルゲンを吸入することによる防止手段として、マスクなどの繊維製品による遮断がある。このマスク等の繊維製品にアレルゲン賦活化機能を付与する方法が知られている。特許文献1には、アレルゲンを賦活する方法として銀イオン、銅イオン及び亜鉛イオンなどを多孔質物質に担持して、マスクに利用している。また、特許文献2には、タンニン酸でマスクなどの繊維製品を処理することによるアレルゲンの不活化が可能であるとしている。これらは一例であるがマスクを高機能化しアレルゲンを不活化する検討は多数なされている。   As a preventive measure by inhaling scattered allergens, there is blocking by a textile product such as a mask. A method of imparting an allergen activation function to a textile product such as a mask is known. In Patent Document 1, as a method for activating allergens, silver ions, copper ions, zinc ions and the like are supported on a porous material and used as a mask. Patent Document 2 states that allergens can be inactivated by treating a fiber product such as a mask with tannic acid. These are merely examples, but many studies have been made to make the mask highly functional and inactivate the allergen.

一方、アレルギー症状の発症は、飛散したアレルゲンを吸入することによるぜんそく等の発症の他に、皮膚からの吸収による皮膚炎などもある。ダニアレルゲンもアトピー性皮膚炎の原因と言われている。アレルゲンを皮膚から体内へ遮断する検討は少ない。特許文献3では、金属フタロシアニンのもつ酸化還元触媒機能を利用したアレルゲン分解機能を繊維に付与した製品が示されている。また、特許文献4では天然物から抽出したダニや花粉のアレルゲン不活化剤を染色工程において添加する方法とその方法で製造された繊維製品が示されている。   On the other hand, onset of allergic symptoms includes not only asthma caused by inhalation of scattered allergens but also dermatitis caused by absorption from the skin. Mite allergens are also said to cause atopic dermatitis. There are few studies to block allergens from the skin to the body. Patent Document 3 discloses a product in which an allergen decomposition function using a redox catalyst function of metal phthalocyanine is imparted to a fiber. Patent Document 4 discloses a method of adding a mite or pollen allergen inactivating agent extracted from a natural product in a dyeing process and a fiber product produced by the method.

肌着にアレルゲン不活化剤を用いることは種々提案されている。しかし、肌着の役割として吸湿性や保湿性が同時に求められている。さらには、皮膚炎などは乾燥肌いわゆるドライスキンなどでも発症する。   Various proposals have been made to use allergen inactivating agents for underwear. However, moisture absorption and moisture retention are simultaneously required as the role of underwear. Furthermore, dermatitis or the like also develops on dry skin, so-called dry skin.

特開2006−291031JP 2006-291031 A 特開2005−273099JP 2005-273099 A 特開2007−31929JP2007-31929 特開2009−84719JP 2009-84719 A 特開2005−139588JP-A-2005-139588

しかしながら、アレルゲン不活化剤等は一般的には高価である。また、皮膚へのダニアレルゲン等のアレルゲン物質との接触を防ぐ方法としては、直接皮膚に接触している肌着等への加工が必要になり、安全に使用できる不活化剤等も限られる。さらに、タンニン酸やフタロシアニンなどはそれ自体の色彩が強く、繊維製品の色彩が限定される課題があった。   However, allergen inactivating agents are generally expensive. In addition, as a method for preventing contact with allergen substances such as mite allergens on the skin, it is necessary to process the underwear that is in direct contact with the skin, and inactivators that can be used safely are limited. Furthermore, tannic acid and phthalocyanine have strong colors themselves, and there is a problem that the color of textile products is limited.

さらに、アレルゲン不活化剤等の薬剤は取り扱いが限定されるため、家庭で簡単にアレルゲン加工をすることは困難である。つまり、最初からアレルゲン不活化剤等で加工してある製品を購入しなくてはならず、現在使用している既存の肌着等へ加工を施すことは困難であった。   Furthermore, since the handling of drugs such as allergen inactivating agents is limited, it is difficult to easily process allergens at home. In other words, a product processed with an allergen inactivating agent or the like must be purchased from the beginning, and it has been difficult to process existing underwear currently used.

また、皮膚の炎症は、遺伝的な要因だけでなく、環境因子が発症等の引き金になる。成人アトピー性皮膚炎患者においては、非アレルギー的要因として乾燥肌(ドライスキン)があり、乾燥、摩擦などで症状が悪化することが知られている。そのため、アトピー性皮膚炎の治療においては、内服・外用治療だけでなく、日常生活においてアレルギー性および非アレルギー的な刺激を避けることがきわめて重要である。これまで、掃除の励行、空気清浄機の活用などで防ダニ、防埃などが行われてきたが、皮膚に直接接する肌着等に対する注意は払われてこなかった。   In addition, skin inflammation is triggered not only by genetic factors but also by environmental factors. In adult atopic dermatitis patients, there is dry skin as a non-allergic factor, and it is known that symptoms worsen due to dryness and friction. Therefore, in the treatment of atopic dermatitis, it is extremely important to avoid allergic and non-allergic stimuli in daily life as well as internal and external treatments. So far, mite prevention and dust prevention have been carried out through cleaning, air cleaners, etc., but attention has not been paid to underwear that comes in direct contact with the skin.

そこで、本発明の目的は、製品の色彩に影響を与えず、アレルゲン不活化剤などの高価な薬剤を使用することなく、さらに簡単に加工できるアレルゲン物質を吸着除去する機能を持つ繊維処理組成物を提供するものである。   Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a fiber treatment composition having a function of adsorbing and removing an allergen substance that does not affect the color of the product and can be further easily processed without using an expensive drug such as an allergen inactivating agent. Is to provide.

本発明の発明者は、微生物などタンパク質由来粒子の表面電位について長年に渡り研究してきた。その中で、微生物やウイルス等のタンパク質由来粒子は水中では負に帯電しており、正に帯電している表面に吸着し、水中から除去できることを明らかにしてきた。また、今回アトピー性皮膚炎の原因になるダニアレルゲンについて、汗等の水中では大きく負に帯電していること明らかにした。   The inventors of the present invention have been studying the surface potential of protein-derived particles such as microorganisms for many years. Among them, it has been clarified that protein-derived particles such as microorganisms and viruses are negatively charged in water, adsorbed on a positively charged surface, and can be removed from water. The mite allergen that causes atopic dermatitis has been shown to be highly negatively charged in water such as sweat.

本発明者らは、前記課題を解決すべく鋭意開発の結果、本発明に到達した。本発明に係る繊維製品は、その表面電位を正に保つことにより、負に帯電しているダニアレルゲン等のアレルゲン粒子や有害タンパク質を静電的に繊維表面に吸着させて汗などの水中から除去することに成功した。   The inventors of the present invention have arrived at the present invention as a result of intensive development to solve the above problems. The fiber product according to the present invention removes it from water such as sweat by electrostatically adsorbing negatively charged mite allergen and allergen particles and harmful proteins on the fiber surface by keeping the surface potential positive. Succeeded in doing.

These additional additives need to be selected and applied without interaction with the cationic functionality of chitosan. The amount of the fungicide, preservative, moisturizer, fragrance, fluorescent agent and the like is preferably 10 parts by weight or less with respect to the treatment composition.

本発明のアレルゲン除去用繊維処理組成物は、キトサン及び有機酸、並びに任意成分として第四級アンモニウム塩、アルコール類及び界面活性剤を水を含むものであり、これらを混合して溶液調製することで、アレルゲン除去用繊維処理剤を調製できる。各成分のそれぞれの組成は、キトサンが1〜30重量部、有機酸が5〜40重量部、任意成分である第四級アンモニウム塩が0〜30重量部、アルコール類が0〜40重量部及び界面活性剤が0〜30重量部に対して、水を50〜80重量部を添加して混合し溶液とすることでアレルゲン除去用繊維処理剤が調製される。   The fiber treatment composition for removing allergens of the present invention contains chitosan and an organic acid, and quaternary ammonium salts, alcohols and surfactants as optional components, and these are mixed to prepare a solution. Thus, a fiber treatment agent for allergen removal can be prepared. The composition of each component is 1 to 30 parts by weight of chitosan, 5 to 40 parts by weight of an organic acid, 0 to 30 parts by weight of a quaternary ammonium salt as an optional component, 0 to 40 parts by weight of alcohols, and The fiber treatment agent for removing allergen is prepared by adding 50 to 80 parts by weight of water and mixing the surfactant with respect to 0 to 30 parts by weight to obtain a solution.

次に本発明のアレルゲン除去用繊維処理剤を用いて、繊維にアレルゲン除去機能を付与する方法を説明する。
本発明のアレルゲン除去用繊維処理剤は、キトサン濃度として0.1〜0.001重量%となる様に水で希釈し、アレルゲン除去機能を付与したい繊維を浸漬して十分に処理剤液を繊維に含ませた後、乾燥することにより簡便に加工処理をすることが可能である。キトサン濃度として、0.1重量%より高濃度溶液で処理する場合、キトサンの吸着処理に偏りが生じる等の影響で、十分なアレルゲン除去機能が付与されない場合がある。また、0.001重量%より低濃度溶液を用いた場合、キトサン吸着量が不十分で、アレルゲン除去機能が低い場合がある。
具体的には、直径約40cmの洗面器であれば、水3Lに対して本発明のアレルゲン除去用繊維処理剤(キトサン3.3%含有)を3g加え良く撹拌した後、Tシャツ3枚分(約400g)に相当する衣類を入れ、良く揉みこみながら液を染み込ませ、手搾りあるいは洗濯機の脱水機能を用いて脱水して通常通り洗濯物として干せば、アレルゲン除去機能を付与することができる。
さらには、全自動洗濯機の場合、柔軟剤投入口に本発明のアレルゲン除去用繊維処理剤(キトサン10重量%含有溶液)を10g入れ、濯ぎの水量が30〜10Lとなる様に投入衣類重量の調整あるいは洗濯機の濯ぎ水量設定を行い、当該処理対象の衣類等を通常の自動洗濯を行えば、濯ぎ水に希釈されながら投入され、そのまま濯ぎ工程中に衣類にアレルゲン除去用繊維処理剤が染み込みそのまま脱水されるため、脱水後、通常通り洗濯物として干すことにより衣類等にアレルゲン除去機能を付与することができる。
また、当該アレルゲン除去用繊維処理剤を、水を主成分とする溶媒でキトサン濃度として0.1〜0.001重量%の希釈液を調製し、繊維素材に対し、この希釈液をスプレーによる噴霧添加することで、簡便に繊維素材にアレルゲン除去機能を付与できる。スプレーによる噴霧添加方法は、特に乾燥工程を実施する必要がなく自然乾燥により、アレルゲン除去機能を付与した繊維素材を調製できる。
Next, a method for imparting an allergen removing function to a fiber using the allergen removing fiber treatment agent of the present invention will be described.
The fiber treatment agent for removing allergens of the present invention is diluted with water so that the chitosan concentration is 0.1 to 0.001% by weight, and the treatment agent solution is sufficiently dispersed by immersing the fibers to be provided with an allergen removal function. It is possible to process simply by drying after it is contained. When the chitosan concentration is treated with a solution having a concentration higher than 0.1% by weight, a sufficient allergen removal function may not be provided due to the influence of bias in the chitosan adsorption treatment. In addition, when a solution having a concentration lower than 0.001% by weight is used, the amount of chitosan adsorption may be insufficient and the allergen removal function may be low.
Specifically, in the case of a basin having a diameter of about 40 cm, 3 g of the fiber treatment agent for allergen removal (containing 3.3% of chitosan) of the present invention is added to 3 L of water, and the mixture is thoroughly stirred, and then 3 T-shirts. (Approx. 400g) put clothes, soak in the liquid while squeezing well, dehydrated by hand squeezing or using the dehydration function of the washing machine, and dried as laundry as usual to give allergen removal function it can.
Furthermore, in the case of a fully automatic washing machine, 10 g of the fiber treatment agent for removing allergens of the present invention (solution containing 10% by weight of chitosan) is added to the softener inlet, and the weight of the input clothing is adjusted so that the amount of water for rinsing is 30 to 10 L. If the garment or the like to be processed is subjected to normal automatic washing, it is introduced while being diluted in the rinsing water, and the fiber treatment agent for removing allergens is applied to the garment as it is during the rinsing process. Since it soaks and is dehydrated as it is, the allergen-removing function can be imparted to clothing and the like by drying as usual after dehydration.
In addition, the fiber treatment agent for removing allergen is prepared as a chitosan concentration 0.1 to 0.001% by weight in a solvent mainly composed of water, and this diluted solution is sprayed on the fiber material by spraying. By adding, the allergen removal function can be easily imparted to the fiber material. The spray addition method by spraying does not require any particular drying step, and a fiber material having an allergen removing function can be prepared by natural drying.

アレルゲン除去機能付与繊維として適用できる繊維材料は特に限定されるものではなく、衣服等に用いられる繊維生地、フィルター等に用いられる繊維織布等に用いることができる。繊維素材としては、綿、絹、麻、ウール、セルロース等の天然素材、ポリエステル、ナイロン、ポリエチレンテレフタレート、ポリエチレン、ポリプロピレン等の合成繊維に対し、アレルゲン除去機能を付与した繊維素材とすることができる。すなわち、本発明のアレルゲン除去用繊維処理剤は、肌着、靴下、ブラウス等の一般衣料や、生地団カバー、枕カバー、生地団綿等の寝具関連繊維、包帯、ガーゼ等の医療関連繊維、あるいは、ぬいぐるみ等の玩具関連繊維、または、エアコンや空気清浄器のフィルター等へのアレルゲン除去機能付与に好適に用いることができる。   The fiber material that can be used as the allergen-removing function-imparting fiber is not particularly limited, and can be used for fiber fabrics used for clothes, fiber woven fabrics used for filters, and the like. As a fiber material, it can be set as the fiber material which provided the allergen removal function with respect to synthetic materials, such as natural materials, such as cotton, silk, hemp, wool, and cellulose, polyester, nylon, polyethylene terephthalate, polyethylene, and polypropylene. That is, the fiber treatment agent for removing allergens of the present invention includes general clothing such as underwear, socks, blouse, bedding-related fibers such as fabric cover, pillow cover, and fabric cotton, medical-related fibers such as bandages and gauze, or It can be suitably used for imparting an allergen removing function to toy-related fibers such as stuffed animals or filters of air conditioners and air purifiers.

While being heated at 70 ° C. for 1 hour, decalcification treatment was performed. After completion of the reaction, washing was performed with water until the pH of the washing liquid became 6 or more.

上述の製造例で得られたキトサンの回転粘度、脱アセチル化度、平均重量分子量を測定した。回転粘度は、キトサンを0.5%酢酸水溶液に0.5%(w/w)になる様に溶解し、液温20℃にて、B型回転粘度計で粘度を測定した。キトサンの脱アセチル化度はトルイジンブルーを指示薬として、1/400Nポリビニル硫酸カリウム液を用いるコロイド滴定で求めた。キトサンの分子量は、昭和電工社製のプルラン標準(Shodex STANDARD P82)を標準試料に用い、下記表の条件にてGPC法で測定した。   The rotational viscosity, the degree of deacetylation, and the average weight molecular weight of the chitosan obtained in the above production example were measured.

[試験例1]ダニアレルゲンのゼータ電位測定
実験にはダニ抗原は、精製ダニ抗原rDerfII(アサヒフードアンドヘルスケア(株)製)を用いた。ダニ抗原濃度は、100μg/mLになるよう蒸留水で希釈した。ダニ抗原のゼータ電位の測定は、顕微鏡電気泳動装置(ZEECOM、マイクロテックニチオン製)で行った。精製ダニ抗原rDerf2は、レーザー光を用いることで微少な粒子として確認できることがわかった。そのため、顕微鏡電気泳動法でゼータ電位を測定することができた。
結果を図2に示す。図から明らかなようにダニアレルゲンは、(a)水道水(実験に使用した水は、浄水器(東レ製:トレビーノカセッティー203X)で処理し、オートクレーブ滅菌をおこなった桐生市水道水で作製した)、(b)酸性汗液(JIS L0848)、(c)アルカリ性汗液(JIS L0848)ともに負に帯電していることがわかった。汗液などのイオン強度の大きい溶液の中ではダニアレルゲンのゼータ電位が小さくなると予想したが、結果から負の帯電を維持していることがわかった。特に、アルカリ性汗液中では大きく負に帯電していた。これは、通常のタンパク質の変化と同じ傾向である。
[Test Example 1] Zeta potential measurement of mite allergen Purified mite antigen rDerfII (manufactured by Asahi Food and Healthcare Co., Ltd.) was used for experiments. The mite antigen concentration was diluted with distilled water to 100 μg / mL. The measurement of the zeta potential of mite antigen was performed with a microscope electrophoresis apparatus (ZEECOM, manufactured by Microtech Nichion). It was found that the purified mite antigen rDerf2 can be confirmed as fine particles by using laser light. Therefore, the zeta potential could be measured by microscopic electrophoresis.
The results are shown in FIG. As is clear from the figure, mite allergens were prepared with Kira City tap water (a) tap water (the water used in the experiment was treated with a water purifier (Toray Industries: Trebino Cassetti 203X) and autoclaved. ), (B) Acidic sweat (JIS L0848) and (c) Alkaline sweat (JIS L0848) were both negatively charged. We predicted that the zeta potential of mite allergen would be smaller in solutions with high ionic strength, such as sweat, but the results showed that the negative charge was maintained. In particular, the alkaline sweat solution was largely negatively charged. This is the same trend as normal protein changes.

[試験例2]加工綿布のゼータ電位測定
試験に用いる綿布は堅ろう度用綿布(JIS L0803)を使用した。アレルゲン除去用繊維処理剤として実施例1のキトサン溶液を水道水で希釈しキトサン0.1重量%溶液とした。綿布の加工方法は、試験綿布1.5gに対して、実施例2のキトサン0.1重量%液30mLを加えて、水温を50℃に保ちながら、時々攪拌した。10分後、綿布を取り出し、絞った後、55℃で十分に乾燥させて加工綿布を作製した。
未加工綿布(JIS堅ろう度白布)と本発明品で加工した綿布のゼータ電位を測定した。
各試験布をミキサー(ワンダーブレンダー 大阪ケミカル製)にして粉砕した。粉砕試料を水中に分散し、ゼータ電位を測定した。実験に使用した水は、浄水器(東レ製:トレビーノカセッティー203X)で処理し、オートクレーブ滅菌をおこなった桐生市水道水で作製した。尚、これらの作製した水に微粒子などの夾雑物がないことをゼータ電位測定装置のレーザー光下で確認した。
結果を図3に示す。未加工綿布はゼータ電位−10mVにピークが確認でき、表面電位は負に帯電していることがわかった(図3(a))。一方、キトサン加工綿布(本発明品による加工処理品)は、ゼータ電位+15mVと大きく正に帯電することがわかった(図3(b))。これらのゼータ電位測定の結果から、本発明品により綿布を大きく正に帯電させることが可能で、負に帯電しているダニアレルゲンの吸着除去が期待できることが予想された。
[Test Example 2] Measurement of zeta potential of processed cotton cloth The cotton cloth used for the test was a cotton cloth (JIS L0803) for hardness. As a fiber treatment agent for removing allergens, the chitosan solution of Example 1 was diluted with tap water to obtain a 0.1 wt% chitosan solution. The cotton cloth was processed by adding 30 ml of the 0.1% by weight chitosan solution of Example 2 to 1.5 g of the test cotton cloth and stirring occasionally while keeping the water temperature at 50 ° C. After 10 minutes, the cotton cloth was taken out and squeezed, and then sufficiently dried at 55 ° C. to prepare a processed cotton cloth.
The zeta potential of unprocessed cotton cloth (JIS white fastness cloth) and cotton cloth processed with the product of the present invention was measured.
Each test cloth was pulverized with a mixer (Wonder Blender, Osaka Chemical). The ground sample was dispersed in water and the zeta potential was measured. The water used in the experiment was prepared with Kiryu City tap water that had been treated with a water purifier (Toray Industries: Trebino Cassetti 203X) and autoclaved. In addition, it was confirmed under laser light from a zeta potential measuring device that these produced waters were free from foreign substances such as fine particles.
The results are shown in FIG. The unprocessed cotton fabric was confirmed to have a peak at a zeta potential of −10 mV, and the surface potential was found to be negatively charged (FIG. 3A). On the other hand, it was found that chitosan-processed cotton cloth (processed product according to the present invention) was positively charged with a zeta potential of +15 mV (FIG. 3B). From the results of these zeta potential measurements, it was predicted that the cotton cloth can be largely positively charged with the product of the present invention, and adsorption and removal of negatively charged mite allergen can be expected.

[試験例3]キトサン加工濃度比較試験
キトサン加工による綿布のカチオン化度を測定した。試験に用いる綿布は堅ろう度用綿布(JIS
L0803)を使用した。また、家庭で洗濯処理後にキトサン加工を行うことを想定し、堅ろう度洗濯試験(JIS L0844)を参考に洗濯処理を行った綿布も用意した。
アレルゲン除去用繊維処理剤として実施例1のキトサン溶液を水道水で希釈しキトサン濃度で0.1%(w/w)溶液、0.01%(w/w)溶液、0.001%(w/w)溶液を調製した。ブランク液として、水道水を用いた。
綿布の加工方法は、試験綿布1.5gに対して、実施例2のアレルゲン除去用繊維処理剤を希釈して調製したキトサン希釈液(0.1%(w/w)溶液、0.01%(w/w)溶液、0.001%(w/w)溶液)を30mLを加えて、水温を50℃に保ちながら、時々攪拌した。10分後、綿布を取り出し、絞った後、55℃で十分に乾燥させて加工綿布を作製した。また、家庭で洗濯処理後にキトサン加工を行うことを想定し、堅ろう度洗濯試験(JIS L0844)を参考に洗濯処理を行った綿布も用意し、同様の操作によりキトサン加工処理綿布を調製した。
実施例2に係るキトサン溶液で処理した綿布の表面加工処理度を、綿布の染色による方法で比較した。染色には、アニオン性の染料であるDirect Blue86(以下、DB86 東京化成工業製)を使用した。染色液は、DB86濃度0.1mg/Lに調整した溶液を用いた。染色は0.5gの綿布に対して、染色液5mLを加えて10分程室温で保持した後、水道水でよく洗浄した。乾燥後、それぞれの綿布について分光測色器を用いてK/S値を測定して、染色の程度から加工綿布のキトサン処理によるカチオン化度を測定した。これは、DB86ががアニオン性の染料であり、表面が大きく正に帯電している綿布には濃く染まる性質を利用したキトサン処理によるカチオン化度の評価方法である。K/S値は反射率とは異なり、色剤層の性質を数値化したもので、色を濃度で見る数値と解釈できる。反射率は値が高いほど色濃度は低くなり、値が低いほど色濃度は高くなるが、K/S値は値が高いほど色濃度は高くなり、値が低いほど色濃度は低くなる。つまり、K/S値の数値が高ければ染色濃度が高くなる。また、このことは繊維表面のカチオン化度と高い相関があることは知られている。すなわち、キトサン処理に基づくカチオン化度が大きい綿布は染色度が高く濃色になるため、K/S値が高く表れる。なお、K/S値は、Kubelka−Munk式:K/S=(1−R)2/2S (K:光の吸収係数、S:光の散乱係数、R:表面反射率)で定義される表面色濃度の指数である。
実施例2のキトサン溶液による各種キトサン濃度溶液処理綿布のカチオン化度を、DB86で染色した綿布のK/S値による評価結果を図4に示す。K/S値が大きいほど濃色に染色されており、綿布のカチオン化度が高い。図4からキトサン濃度0.1%溶液で処理した綿布が最も濃色であり、キトサン加工程度が大きい結果となった。洗濯後とは洗濯処理した綿布に、各キトサン濃度の溶液によりキトサン加工したものである。洗濯処理は、界面活性剤がアニオンのため、洗濯処理後綿布表面は負に大きく帯電する。家庭での洗濯の場合、一般的には繊維表面の負帯電を中和するため柔軟剤が用いられている。キトサンは柔軟剤と同様のカチオン性の分子なので、洗濯処理を行うことで吸着力が高くなると予想される。結果は、キトサン濃度0.01%溶液による加工綿布は、洗濯処理後でK/S値が高くなっており、染色ムラもなかった。キトサン濃度0.001%溶液による処理やブランク液処理ではわずかに染色される程度であった。以上の結果から、綿布を有効にカチオン化できるキトサン濃度は、キトサン濃度が0.01〜0.1%(w/w)溶液が適当であることが判明した。
[Test Example 3] Chitosan processing concentration comparison test The degree of cationization of cotton fabric by chitosan processing was measured. The cotton cloth used for the test is a cotton cloth for hardness (JIS
L0803) was used. In addition, assuming that the chitosan processing is performed after the laundry treatment at home, a cotton fabric subjected to the laundry treatment with reference to the fastness wash test (JIS L0844) was also prepared.
The chitosan solution of Example 1 was diluted with tap water as a fiber treatment agent for allergen removal, and the chitosan concentration was 0.1% (w / w) solution, 0.01% (w / w) solution, 0.001% (w / W) A solution was prepared. Tap water was used as the blank solution.
The processing method of the cotton fabric was a chitosan diluted solution (0.1% (w / w) solution, 0.01%) prepared by diluting the fiber treatment agent for allergen removal of Example 2 with respect to 1.5 g of the test cotton fabric. 30 mL of (w / w) solution, 0.001% (w / w) solution) was added, and the mixture was sometimes stirred while keeping the water temperature at 50 ° C. After 10 minutes, the cotton cloth was taken out and squeezed, and then sufficiently dried at 55 ° C. to prepare a processed cotton cloth. In addition, assuming that the chitosan processing is performed after the laundry processing at home, a cotton fabric subjected to the laundry processing with reference to the fastness wash test (JIS L0844) was also prepared, and a chitosan processed cotton fabric was prepared by the same operation.
The degree of surface processing of the cotton fabric treated with the chitosan solution according to Example 2 was compared by a method by dyeing the cotton fabric. For the dyeing, Direct Blue 86 (hereinafter referred to as DB86 manufactured by Tokyo Chemical Industry Co., Ltd.), which is an anionic dye, was used. As the staining solution, a solution adjusted to a DB86 concentration of 0.1 mg / L was used. For dyeing, 5 mL of a dyeing solution was added to 0.5 g of cotton cloth and kept at room temperature for about 10 minutes, and then washed well with tap water. After drying, the K / S value of each cotton cloth was measured using a spectrocolorimeter, and the degree of cationization by chitosan treatment of the processed cotton cloth was measured from the degree of dyeing. This is a method for evaluating the degree of cationization by chitosan treatment utilizing the property that DB86 is an anionic dye and the surface is heavily dyed on a cotton fabric that is positively charged. Unlike the reflectance, the K / S value is a numerical value of the properties of the colorant layer, and can be interpreted as a numerical value for viewing the color in terms of density. The higher the reflectance, the lower the color density, and the lower the value, the higher the color density. However, the higher the K / S value, the higher the color density, and the lower the value, the lower the color density. In other words, the higher the K / S value, the higher the staining density. It is also known that this has a high correlation with the degree of cationization on the fiber surface. That is, a cotton fabric having a high degree of cationization based on the chitosan treatment has a high dyeing degree and a dark color, and thus a high K / S value appears. The K / S value is defined by the Kubelka-Munk equation: K / S = (1-R) 2 / 2S (K: light absorption coefficient, S: light scattering coefficient, R: surface reflectance). It is an index of surface color density.
FIG. 4 shows the results of evaluation of the cationization degree of various chitosan-concentrated solution-treated cotton cloths with the chitosan solution of Example 2 according to the K / S value of the cotton cloth dyed with DB86. The larger the K / S value, the deeper the color, and the higher the degree of cationization of the cotton cloth. From FIG. 4, the cotton fabric treated with the 0.1% chitosan concentration solution was the darkest color, and the chitosan processing degree was large. After washing is a cotton cloth that has been subjected to a washing process and is processed with a chitosan-concentrated solution. In the washing process, since the surfactant is an anion, the surface of the cotton cloth after the washing process is greatly negatively charged. In the case of washing at home, a softener is generally used to neutralize the negative charge on the fiber surface. Since chitosan is a cationic molecule similar to a softener, it is expected that the adsorption power will be increased by washing treatment. As a result, the processed cotton fabric with a 0.01% chitosan concentration solution had a high K / S value after washing, and there was no uneven dyeing. In the treatment with the chitosan concentration 0.001% solution and the blank solution treatment, it was only slightly stained. From the above results, it has been found that a chitosan concentration capable of effectively cationizing a cotton cloth is suitably a solution having a chitosan concentration of 0.01 to 0.1% (w / w).

[試験例4]アレルゲン除去用繊維処理剤のキトサン分子量の検討
実施例1(キトサン分子量約3万)及び実施例2(キトサン分子量約10万)のアレルゲン除去用繊維処理剤を用いて綿布をキトサン溶液処理した場合の、処理綿布のカチオン化度を染色によるK/S値を用いて評価した。
アレルゲン除去用繊維処理剤として、実施例1(キトサン分子量約3万)及び実施例2(キトサン分子量約10万)を、それぞれキトサン濃度で0.01%(w/w)に水道水にて希釈して処理液を調製した。ブランク液として、水道水を用いた。試験に用いる綿布は堅ろう度用綿布(JIS L0803)を使用した。
綿布の加工方法は、アレルゲン除去用繊維処理剤として実施例1及び2を用い、それぞれキトサン濃度で0.01%(w/w)の溶液を用いた以外は、試験例3と同様の操作で、綿布のキトサン加工処理を行った。また、洗濯によるキトサン処理による堅ろう性を確認するため、キトサン加工処理済み綿布を、洗濯洗剤を用いた通常の洗濯処理を行った洗濯処理後綿布も調製して試験試料とした。
得られた加工綿布を、試験例3と同様の操作にて染色処理し、それぞれの綿布について分光測色器を用いてK/S値を測定することにより、加工綿布のキトサン処理によるカチオン化度を測定した。
結果を図5に示す。実施例1(キトサン分子量約3万)及び実施例2(キトサン分子量約10万)により処理した綿布はともに同程度の綿布のカチオン化度であり、分子量によるキトサン処理効果に違いはなかった。また、キトサン処理した綿布を洗濯した場合も、実施例1(キトサン分子量約3万)及び実施例2(キトサン分子量約10万)で処理した綿布は、洗濯前よりカチオン化度の低下は認められたものの、ともに同程度の綿布のカチオン化度であり、分子量によるキトサン処理効果に違いはなかった。
高分子量キトサンは分子量が大きいため水への溶解度が低くなることに起因し、低分子量キトサンに比べて洗濯耐性が高いと考えていた。しかし、結果は高分子キトサン、低分子キトサンともに洗濯によって同程度にカチオン化度が低下した。これは、洗濯において界面活性剤の存在により、高分子量キトサンも溶解するためであると考えている。そのため、肌着等の衣類表面へ加工したキトサンの効果は洗濯により失われることが推察される。このため、本発明のアレルゲン除去用繊維処理剤を肌着等の衣類に用いる場合は、洗濯毎に当該処理剤でキトサン処理してアレルゲン除去機能を付与する使用方法が好ましい。
[Test Example 4] Examination of chitosan molecular weight of fiber treatment agent for removing allergen Chitosan was treated with the fiber treatment agent for removing allergen of Example 1 (chitosan molecular weight of about 30,000) and Example 2 (chitosan molecular weight of about 100,000). When the solution was treated, the degree of cationization of the treated cotton fabric was evaluated using the K / S value by dyeing.
As fiber treatment agents for allergen removal, Example 1 (chitosan molecular weight of about 30,000) and Example 2 (chitosan molecular weight of about 100,000) were each diluted with tap water to a chitosan concentration of 0.01% (w / w). Thus, a treatment liquid was prepared. Tap water was used as the blank solution. As the cotton cloth used for the test, a cotton cloth (JIS L0803) was used.
The processing method for cotton fabric was the same as in Test Example 3 except that Examples 1 and 2 were used as fiber treatment agents for removing allergens, and each used a 0.01% (w / w) solution in chitosan concentration. The chitosan processing of the cotton cloth was performed. Moreover, in order to confirm the fastness by the chitosan treatment by washing, a cotton cloth after the washing treatment in which a normal washing treatment using a laundry detergent was prepared from a cotton cloth treated with a chitosan was prepared as a test sample.
The obtained processed cotton fabric was dyed by the same operation as in Test Example 3, and the K / S value of each cotton fabric was measured using a spectrocolorimeter. Was measured.
The results are shown in FIG. Both the cotton fabrics treated in Example 1 (chitosan molecular weight of about 30,000) and Example 2 (chitosan molecular weight of about 100,000) had the same degree of cationization of the cotton fabric, and there was no difference in the chitosan treatment effect depending on the molecular weight. In addition, when the cotton fabric treated with chitosan was washed, the cotton fabric treated with Example 1 (chitosan molecular weight of about 30,000) and Example 2 (chitosan molecular weight of about 100,000) was found to have a lower degree of cationization than before washing. However, both had the same degree of cationization of cotton fabric, and there was no difference in the chitosan treatment effect depending on the molecular weight.
High molecular weight chitosan was considered to have higher wash resistance than low molecular weight chitosan due to its high molecular weight and low water solubility. However, the results showed that the degree of cationization was reduced to the same extent by washing both high-molecular chitosan and low-molecular chitosan. This is considered to be because high molecular weight chitosan is dissolved due to the presence of the surfactant in washing. Therefore, it is presumed that the effect of chitosan processed on the surface of clothes such as underwear is lost by washing. For this reason, when using the fiber treatment agent for allergen removal of this invention for clothes, such as an underwear, the usage method which provides a allergen removal function by carrying out chitosan treatment with the said treatment agent for every washing | cleaning is preferable.

[試験例4]キトサン加工綿におけるダニアレルゲン除去効果
実施例2のアレルゲン除去用繊維処理剤を、水道水によりキトサン濃度で0.1%(w/w)及び0.01%(w/w)の溶液を調製し、綿布加工処理溶液とした。ブランク液として、水道水を用いた。
試験に用いる綿布は堅ろう度用綿布(JIS
L0803)を使用した。また、家庭で洗濯処理後にキトサン加工を行うことを想定し、堅ろう度洗濯試験(JIS L0844)を参考に洗濯処理を行った洗濯後綿布も試験綿布とした。
試験綿布の加工方法は、各試験綿布1.5gに対して、実施例2のアレルゲン除去用繊維処理剤を希釈して調製したキトサン希釈液(0.1%(w/w)溶液及び0.01%(w/w)溶液)を30mLを加えて、水温を50℃に保ちながら、時々攪拌した。10分後、綿布を取り出し、絞った後、55℃で十分に乾燥させて加工綿布をそれぞれ作製した。
ダニアレルゲン除去効果試験は、加工綿布を後述するダニアレルゲン溶液で処理し、加工綿布のキトサン処理により正に帯電させた繊維表面にダニアレルゲンを静電的に付着させ、ダニアレルゲン溶液中に残存するダニアレルゲンの濃度を測定することで評価した。
ダニアレルゲン溶液は、精製ダニ抗原rDerfII(アサヒフードアンドヘルスケア(株)製)を用い、ダニ抗原濃度が100μg/mLになるよう蒸留水で希釈し、ダニアレルゲン溶液とした。
各加工綿布0.5gを約10mm×10mmに切断して、それぞれ50mLのサンプルチューブに入れ、各溶液(水道水、酸性汗液、アルカリ性汗液)5mLと上記ダニアレルゲン溶液を5μLを加えた。よく撹拌してから、37℃、200rpmで2時間浸透させた。その後、0.45mmのフィルターで濾過し、その濾過液を評価試料(サンプル)とした。
繊維表面のカチオン化層によって除去されたダニアレルゲン濃度を評価する方法として、酵素標識した抗体との抗原抗体反応を利用して定量的に検出する酵素免疫測定法で行った。今回行った方法は、ダニアレルゲン汚染測定の国際的スタンダードであり、以下に述べる測定原理から、一般にサンドイッチ法(非競合法)と呼ばれる方法である。
マイクロプレートのウェルの固相に、あらかじめ目的物質であるダニ抗原(コナヒョウヒダニ)に対する抗体を結合させておく。これにサンプルを添加すると、サンプル中の目的物質が抗原抗体反応により固相に結合する。夾雑物を洗い流した後、酵素標識した第二の抗体を添加すると再度抗原抗体反応が起こり、「固相化抗体/目的物質/酵素標識抗体」のサンドイッチ構造が構築される。ここで遊離の酵素標識抗体を洗い流し、発色基質を添加すると、サンドイッチ構造の量(すなわちサンプル中の目的物質量)に比例して発色反応が起こる。生成した発色物質の吸光度を吸光度計で読み取り、濃度既知の標準品を用いて作製した標準曲線からサンプル中の目的物質量を定量する。
ダニアレルゲンの測定は、ダニアレルゲン測定試薬TAC(R) DerfII ELISA KIT(和光純薬工業製)を用いて常法により行った。検量線は、ダニ抗原濃度50、25、12.5、6.25、3.13、1.56、0.78ng/mL溶液の測定値から作成した。以下に測定操作の概要を示す。
[Test Example 4] Mite allergen removal effect in chitosan-processed cotton The fiber treatment agent for removing allergens of Example 2 was 0.1% (w / w) and 0.01% (w / w) at a chitosan concentration with tap water. Was prepared as a cotton fabric processing solution. Tap water was used as the blank solution.
The cotton cloth used for the test is a cotton cloth for hardness (JIS
L0803) was used. In addition, assuming that the chitosan processing is performed after the laundry treatment at home, the cotton fabric after the laundry subjected to the laundry treatment with reference to the fastness wash test (JIS L0844) was also used as the test cotton fabric.
The processing method of the test cotton fabric was a chitosan diluted solution (0.1% (w / w) solution and 0. 0%) prepared by diluting the fiber treatment agent for allergen removal of Example 2 with respect to 1.5 g of each test cotton fabric. (01% (w / w) solution) was added in an amount of 30 mL, and the mixture was stirred occasionally while maintaining the water temperature at 50 ° C. After 10 minutes, the cotton cloth was taken out and squeezed, and then sufficiently dried at 55 ° C. to prepare each processed cotton cloth.
In the mite allergen removal effect test, the processed cotton cloth is treated with a mite allergen solution described later, and the mite allergen is electrostatically attached to the fiber surface that is positively charged by the chitosan treatment of the processed cotton cloth, and remains in the mite allergen solution. Evaluation was made by measuring the concentration of mite allergen.
The mite allergen solution was purified mite antigen rDerfII (manufactured by Asahi Food and Healthcare Co., Ltd.) and diluted with distilled water to a mite antigen concentration of 100 μg / mL to obtain a mite allergen solution.
0.5 g of each processed cotton cloth was cut into about 10 mm × 10 mm, put in a 50 mL sample tube, and 5 mL of each solution (tap water, acidic sweat solution, alkaline sweat solution) and the above mite allergen solution were added. After stirring well, the solution was infiltrated at 37 ° C. and 200 rpm for 2 hours. Then, it filtered with the 0.45 mm filter and used the filtrate as the evaluation sample (sample).
As a method for evaluating the mite allergen concentration removed by the cationized layer on the fiber surface, an enzyme immunoassay method that quantitatively detects antigen-antibody reaction with an enzyme-labeled antibody was used. The method performed this time is an international standard for measuring mite allergen contamination. From the measurement principle described below, the method is generally called the sandwich method (non-competitive method).
An antibody against a target substance, mite antigen (Coleander mite), is previously bound to the solid phase of the well of the microplate. When a sample is added thereto, the target substance in the sample is bound to the solid phase by an antigen-antibody reaction. After the impurities are washed away, when the second antibody labeled with an enzyme is added, an antigen-antibody reaction occurs again, and a sandwich structure of “immobilized antibody / target substance / enzyme labeled antibody” is constructed. When the free enzyme-labeled antibody is washed away and a chromogenic substrate is added, a chromogenic reaction occurs in proportion to the amount of the sandwich structure (that is, the amount of the target substance in the sample). The absorbance of the generated color substance is read with an absorptiometer, and the amount of the target substance in the sample is quantified from a standard curve prepared using a standard product with a known concentration.
Mite allergen was measured by a conventional method using a mite allergen measuring reagent TAC (R) DerfII ELISA KIT (manufactured by Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd.). A calibration curve was prepared from measured values of mite antigen concentrations of 50, 25, 12.5, 6.25, 3.13, 1.56, and 0.78 ng / mL. The outline of the measurement operation is shown below.

Figure 2015074841
Figure 2015074841

各処理綿布のダニアレルゲンの除去の結果を図6に示す。洗濯処理後0.01%のキトサン溶液で加工した綿布が、中性液でダニアレルゲンが検出されず(ND;未検出)、最もダニアレルゲン除去効果が高いことが明らかとなった。洗濯処理後0.1%キトサン加工綿布では、アルカリ性汗液、酸性汗液で除去できたが、中性(水道水)では除去できなかった。これは、キトサンが均等に綿布繊維表面に吸着加工されず、繊維表面のカチオン電荷分布が均一でないことに起因し、ダニアレルゲンを吸着できる部分に偏りが生じたためと考えられる。各汗液ではイオン強度が高いため、繊維表面の電位分布の偏りが打ち消され、打ち消される方向に働いたため、ある程度のダニアレルゲン吸着が得られたものと推察している。洗濯処理した綿布(洗濯後綿布)は、酸性汗液でのダニアレルゲン除去効果が高まった。以上の結果から、本発明のアレルゲン除去用繊維処理剤は、キトサン濃度として0.01〜0.1%(w/w)で繊維素材を処理することにより、ダニアレルゲンを吸着除去する機能を付与できることが明らかとなった。本発明のアレルゲン除去用繊維処理剤は、洗濯した繊維素材に対してより一層のアレルゲン除去機能を発揮することから、洗濯して繰り返し使用する肌着等の衣類への適用が好ましいと考えられる。   The result of removing mite allergen from each treated cotton fabric is shown in FIG. It was revealed that the cotton fabric processed with the 0.01% chitosan solution after the washing treatment did not detect mite allergen in the neutral solution (ND; not detected), and had the highest mite allergen removal effect. The 0.1% chitosan-treated cotton cloth after washing treatment could be removed with alkaline sweat solution and acidic sweat solution, but not with neutral (tap water). This is presumably because chitosan was not evenly adsorbed on the surface of the cotton fabric, and the cationic charge distribution on the surface of the fiber was not uniform, resulting in a bias in the part capable of adsorbing mite allergen. Since each ionic fluid has high ionic strength, the bias of the potential distribution on the fiber surface is canceled out, and it works in the direction of cancellation, so it is presumed that some mite allergen adsorption was obtained. Washed cotton cloth (cotton cloth after washing) increased the mite allergen removal effect with acidic sweat. From the above results, the fiber treatment agent for removing allergens of the present invention has a function of adsorbing and removing mite allergens by treating fiber materials with a chitosan concentration of 0.01 to 0.1% (w / w). It became clear that we could do it. Since the fiber treatment agent for removing allergens of the present invention exhibits a further allergen removing function for the washed fiber material, it is considered preferable to apply it to clothing such as underwear that is washed and used repeatedly.
