Abstract
Tres plantas colectadas en el Valle de Zongo fueron evaluadas para aplicaciones textiles. Las especies seleccionadas fueron extraídas siguiendo procedimientos ácidos y básicos para obtener muestras coloridas, que fueron sometidas a técnicas de tinción directa e indirecta (con mordientes). En todos los experimentos, la necesidad de mordiente fue observada y el tipo de mordiente químico fue identificado. En cada trabajo, el poder de la tinción del colorante natural en la tela fue evaluado usando una serie de protocolos de lavado, enjuague, secado, planchado y exposición a la luz solar. Se encontró que el extracto ácido de Brachyotum microdon (flores) necesita Al2(SO4)3 para teñir la tela con un tono rojo cabernet, mientras que el extracto básico fija la tela de color café con FeCl3 y verde con FeSO4. El extracto ácido de los tallos de Souroubea fragilis tiñe la tela con un color naranja claro cuando se utiliza Al2(SO4)3 como mordiente, mientras que el extracto básico proporciona un tono café gracias a CuSO4 o FeSO4. Finalmente, el extracto ácido de Fuchsia boliviana (flores y frutos) dio tinciones rosa pálido y verde con Al2(SO4)3 and FeCl3; respectivamente. El extracto básico de esta planta proporcionó un teñido verde con CuSO4 y una tonalidad naranja con FeCl3. Diferentes tipos de telas fueron evaluadas y los mejores resultados de teñido se observaron con algodón. Todos los extractos estudiados presentaron actividades antioxidantes y fotoprotectoras. El extracto ácido de Brachyotum microdon (flores) mostró 82.5% de inhibición a 10µg/ml contra DPPH y absorbió la dañina radiación UV B. El extracto acídico de Fuchsia boliviana (flores y frutos) dio una inhibición de 86.7% a 10µg/ml contra DPPH y también absorbió la nociva radiación UV B. Finalmente, el extracto ácido de Souroubea fragilis (tallos) presentó 92.1% de inhibición a 100µg/ml contra DPPH y absorbió ambas radiaciones UV-A y UV-B.
Three plants collected at the Zongo Valley were evaluated for textile dyeing applications. The species selected were extracted following acidic and basic procedures to obtain colored samples, that were submitted to direct and indirect (with mordents) dyeing techniques. In all experiments the need of a mordant was observed and the type of chemical mordant was identified. In each work, the strength of the fabric's dye with the natural colorant was evaluated using a series of washing, rinsing, drying, ironing and exposure to sun light protocols. It was found that the acidic extract of Brachyotum microdon (flowers) needs Al2(SO4)3 to dye the fabric with a red cabernet tone, while the basic extract fixes the fabric with a brown color with FeCl3 and green with FeSO4. The acid extract of the stems of Souroubea fragilis dyed the fabric with a light orange color when Al2(SO4)3 was used as a mordent, while the basic extract provided brown tones thanks to CuSO4 or FeSO4. Finally, the acidic extract of Fuchsia boliviana (flowers and fruits) gave a pale rose and a green tinting with Al2(SO4)3 and FeCl3, respectively. The basic extract of this plant provided a green dyeing with CuSO4 and orange shading with FeCl3. Different types of fabrics were evaluated, and the best dyeing results were observed with cotton. All the extracts studied presented antioxidant and photoprotector activities. The acidic extract of Brachyotum microdon (flowers) showed 82.5% of inhibition at 10µg/ml against DPPH and it absorbed the harmful UV B radiation. The acidic extract of Fuchsia boliviana (flowers and fruits) gave an 86.7% of inhibition at 10µg/ml against DPPH and it also absorbed the damaging UV B radiation. Finally, the acidic extract of Souroubea fragilis (stems) presented 92.1% of inhibition at 100µg/ml against DPPH and it absorbed both UV-B and UV-A radiations.
