The present invention provides a fiber with iodinated resin particles embedded therein. The innovative fibers a show no or negligible leaching of iodine into the atmosphere and thus are not toxic. In one aspect, the antimicrobial fibers can be bonded or woven together to form a filter media. Examples of nonwoven filters are provided. Additionally, an electric charge can be applied across the nonwoven substrate to increase antimicrobial efficacy.
