Elon, North Carolina – The American branch of the Hohenstein Institute has created a new textile testing method that allows manufacturers to evaluate the effects their fabrics may have on the people who wear them.
Scientists at Hohenstein’s Institute for Hygiene and Biotechnology have developed the ability to test a knitted fabric’s interaction with living skin cells to indicate whether a fabric is likely to induce an allergic reaction or skin irritation in the wearer.
