“…These are considered impurities as they make the fibre stiff and hinder their Cotton Spinning Properties (CSP). One-bath pretreatment process of natural cellulosic fibre using an enzyme mixture could produce satisfactory textile properties like excellent water absorbency and high tenacity [ 26 , 27 , 28 ]. Therefore, an attempt was made to investigate the effect of enzyme treatment on water-retted virgin canola bast fibres.…”

“…However, Hoque and Azim (2016) found that treating cotton fibres with enzyme alone does not remove much wax and mote (tiny dust particles) compared to a NaOH scouring process; nor can enzyme improve the whiteness of the fibre, making it suitable for dark shades only. In a separate research work, Mohiuddin et al (1992) found enzyme treatment of jute bast fibres and found that treating the controlled fibres (diameter: 50.3 µm, bundle strength or Pressley Index: 1.79 lb/mg) with an enzyme (A. terreus) produced fine diameter fibres (42.5 µm), having improved bundle strength (2.2 lb/mg) better flexibility (no data available/NDA), and softness (NDA). Basu et al (2008) also found increased softness of jute bast fibres after treating them with enzymes.…”
