含吳郭魚魚鱗膠原蛋白胜肽牛仔褲之消臭功能研究

Abstract

吳郭魚養殖是台灣非常重要的水產養殖業之一，而其魚鱗常被視為無價值，多數遭到丟棄，造成了環境的污染。然而，魚鱗中含有豐富的膠原蛋白是可以供人類來利用的。流汗是常見且健康的現象，但衣服或紡織品會因吸收人類所排出的汗液而產生令人難以接受的汗臭味，尤其穿著牛仔褲時更是明顯。除了洗滌方法外，在纖維或布料中添加抗菌劑常被認為是一種控制和防止異味產生的有效方法。但是，這些抗菌劑可能會引起穿著者的健康問題，並對水生生物構成傷害。而傳統的棉質牛仔褲經過水洗後易破壞原始的設計風格並會產生縮水現象，造成穿著上的不適感，因此激發本研究探討是否有比較妥當的方法去除牛仔褲上的汗臭味。本研究使用一種含來自吳郭魚魚鱗的膠原蛋白胜肽的新型牛仔褲布料，按照ISO17299的測試方法評估其對於汗臭的除臭效果。結果顯示:經10次水洗後的測試，該布料對於氨氣、醋酸和異戊酸的除臭率分別為94%、99%和99%，表明其水洗後仍有很好的除臭性能，而相同規格的傳統純棉牛仔褲布料則分別是52%、93%和37%。此外，新型的牛仔褲尚有省水、延長使用壽命、環保、和節能減碳的效益；與其他的除臭方法比較，對人體無副作用，對環境也不易造成污染。此項發現提供給牛仔褲產業一個良好的研發與應用方向。

Tilapia is one of the very important aquaculture fish species in Taiwan. However, the tilapia scales are often considered worthless and discarded; hence cause environmental pollution. Actually, there are plenty of collagen in fish scales, which are available for human use. Sweating is a common and healthy phenomenon, but clothing or textiles will produce unpleasant odor after absorbing human sweat, especially jeans are more obvious. Adding antimicrobial agents into the fibers or onto surface of fabrics to remove unpleasant odor has been considered an effective method. However, these antimicrobial agents may cause health concerns and harm to aquatic life. Furthermore, the original design and fit attribute of traditional cotton jeans were destroyed after washing. Therefore, this study was inspired to explore an appropriate way for removing sweat odor on the denim jeans. This study investigated a novel denim fabric with collagen peptides extracted from tilapia fish scales to evaluate its effectiveness in eliminating sweat odor using ISO17299 method. The results after 10 washes showed that this novel denim fabric still had excellent deodorizing performance for ammonia, acetic acid, and isovaleric acid, with deodorization rates of 94%, 99%, and 99%, respectively, but those of traditional cotton denim fabric were 52%, 93% and 37%, respectively. Besides, the novel jeans can also get the benefits of water saving, extending the service life, environmental protection, energy conservation and carbon reduction, Also, it caused no side effects on human body or environmental pollution compared with other deodorizing methods. This finding will submit a R&D and application direction to the denim jeans industry.
