Eco-friendly Methods of Natural Dye Extraction from Bark of Ficus religiosa and Their Impacts on Dyeing Technology in Nepal

Abstract: Plant-based natural dyes are eco-friendly and less allergic to the human body. Different reports on toxicity and allergic reactions that appeared in synthetic dyes cause interest in natural dyes in recent years. The present study focused on the feasibility of aqueous extraction of plant dyes from the bark of Ficus religiosa (Peepal), a historical tree of Hindu culture.  Extracted dyes were characterized by ultra-violet visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy to reveal t… Show more

“…28 In this study Peepal bark (Ficus religiosa L.) has been explored as potential source of tannin-based reddish brown nature dye for cellulosic fabric using microwave radiations. 29 This Ficus plant being member of family is found around the globe. Its extract has also shown antiprotozoal, antibacterial, antiviral, anthelmintic, antiamnesic, analgesic, antiulcer, anti-diabetic characteristics.…”
