Concepts for development of potentially useful fiber-based consumer products are documented. The concepts include: 1. Products in which complexes of polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) with iodine and/or phenol are incorporated into the fiber matrix. 2. Products in which a hydrophilic polymer such as hyaluronic acid (HYA) is deposited on the fiber's surface prior to formation of the matrix. 3. Products in which hydrogen bonds (H-bonds) generated by hydroxyl (-OH) groups in cellulose are supplanted, either wholly or partially, by H-bonds generated by carboxyl (-COOH) groups.
