Owing to the ongoing pandemic, the importance of and demand for antimicrobial textiles have reached new heights. In addition to being used for medical purposes, antimicrobial textiles could be a self-defense entity against microbes for the general population. Because textiles are widely used, they can effectively be used to prevent the spread of microbes worldwide. The conventional antibacterial finishing process of textiles is the wet treatment method using either the pad–dry–cure or exhaustion techniques. However, the textile wet treatment industries are major contributors to worldwide pollution, which is extremely concerning. Given the current and near-future high demand, it is imperative to include plasma in antimicrobial finishing to achieve high efficiency in production, while retaining a safe environment. Hence, this paper reviews the rationale of plasma use in textile antimicrobial finishing through a critical analysis of recent studies and emphasizes the types and mechanisms of plasma techniques available for application.

由于持续的大流行，抗菌纺织品的重要性和需求达到了新的高度。除了用于医疗目的外，抗菌纺织品还可以作为普通人群抵御微生物的自卫实体。由于纺织品被广泛使用，它们可以有效地用于防止微生物在全球范围内传播。传统的纺织品抗菌整理工艺是湿处理方法，使用浸轧干固化或浸染技术。然而，纺织湿处理行业是全球污染的主要贡献者，这非常令人担忧。鉴于当前和近期的高需求，必须在抗菌整理中加入等离子，以实现高生产效率，同时保持安全的环境。因此，
