will generate heat warming up the legs and also stimulating
blood flow, and will mainly be characterized by these three
functions: the heating function, the compression function and the
aesthetical function.
The first two are being analyzed in collaboration with
Knowledge Center, Design and Technology, Enschede, The
Netherlands. The results are very promising as new textile
heating possibilites arise. As for the aesthetical function of the
product, it has only been partially investigated via survey
questionaire from 20 patients of the Physical Rehabilitation
Hospital in Iasi, Romania, regarding their medical condition,
chromatic choices and general clothing concerns.
Other steps of this study imply a complet thermal profile of the
paralyzed limbs of patients, methods of implemeting the
coresponding electronic components into the textile structure of
the product and developing a flexible, stretchable and stable
conductive structure.

Objectives of this study were to estimate the ability of
antimicrobial activity of ZnO/clinoptilolit and
ZnTiO3/clinoptilolite in solid media (agar plates) against Gram-
Description negative Escherichia coli ATCC 25922 and Gram-positive
Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923. Samples of clinoptilolite
rich tuff (from Beli Plast deposit in Eastern Rhodopes, Bulgaria)
treated with oxalic acid were obtained. Finally, the ZnO and
ZnTiO3 were incorporated into this clinoptilolite samples.
