Abstract: An apparatus for the biocidal treatment of laundry in a washing machine includes a hollow body in which a biocidal substance is enclosed and whose shell has openings for the passage of the washing and rinsing bath. The biocidal substance is chosen in such a way that it is at least substantially harmless for the human metabolism and is effective for a certain period of time beyond the washing process in the washed laundry.
Abstract: Textiles and also dishes and other household implements which are cleaned in laundry machines or dish washing machines can be afforded protection from an increasing colonization by bacteria when the textiles or the dishes are washed together with a microbicidal repository including a solid fiber composite of ion-exchanger particles loaded with silver ions, and a cellulose matrix.
