Abstract

Aims: The ability of a single-sensor gas diagnosis device (SSGDD) as a virtual sensor array data to appraise thyme essential oils (TEO) based on its quantitatively release rate from nanofibres was aimed.Methods: To form nylon 6 fragrant electrospun nanofibre, TEO was added as a natural antibacterial substance under homogeniser to make a stable emulsion.Results: The optimised nanofibre inactivated against Escherichia Coli and Staphylococcus Aureus bacteria up to >75% at once and to > 41.9% over 2-weeks period. Moreover, large differences in sensor responses to samples with experimental variables (percent TEO and storage time) and different odour intensity exist which correctly classified by discriminant function analysis.Conclusions: Odour intensity as an accessible incubator evinces the nanofibres efficiency which correlated to the antibacterial activity. With applying SSGDD technique as a quantified subjective solution, carefully odour assessment is possible and prepared mats could be demonstrated as a face-masks’ promising candidate.
