| Sumario: | The growing wave of viral epidemics that have plagued the world over the centuries favors the search for new technologies that minimize the impact of infectious diseases. With the presence of the SARS-CoV-2 virus circulating among the population and causing many cases of death, this study seeks to identify through technological prospecting (bibliometric and patent) what has been researched and developed in the world regarding antimicrobial agents in textiles and its relationship with the advancement of COVID-19. The methodology used was exploratory with a qualitative and quantitative approach. India and China dispel the greatest amount of research related to new technologies applied to antimicrobial textiles. China is still the largest assignee of patent deposits in this technology, where the associated natural products and silver nanoparticles stand out. It is concluded that the use of antimicrobial agents in textiles determines itself as a promising area, favoring new research. |
