The present invention discloses a method of manufacturing a diaper that has multiple moisture sensing elements on interior side of its bottom impermeable layer or on any surface of the top permeable layer. The moisture sending elements are made by spraying conductive ink on a moving sheet of either the bottom impermeable layer or the top permeable layer, before other layers of the diaper are attached. Spraying of conductive ink on the moving sheet causes parallel lines of conductive inks to be formed on the layer. The parallel lines of conductive ink run through the entire length of either of the layers and are designed to get connected with a detecting device. When a user urinates inside the diaper, the moisture causes a closed circuit between at least two of the parallel lines of conductive inks. These formations of closed circuits, between parallel lines of conductive inks, are detected by the detecting device. Also, with increasing volume of moisture, the resistance of the closed circuits also tends to decrease. This rate of decrease of resistance is also detected by the detecting device and is used to calculate a volume of moisture present in the diaper. The detecting device then generates a suitable alarm to give an idea about the saturation level of the diaper. The process of manufacturing sensing elements by spraying conductive inks on moving sheet of layer reduces the processing and modification overhead of specially designed conductive ink printers and also does not impact the manufacturing time of a diaper manufacturing assembly line.

An environmentally friendly cloth diaper having an interchangeable wetness indicator is provided. The environmentally friendly cloth diaper includes a covering body and at least one wetness indicator. The covering body has an inner side layer, an outer side layer, and an absorption layer. The wetness indicator is interchangeably disposed on the covering body and is exposed from the outer side layer of the covering body, and urine absorbed in the absorption layer is able to be transported to the wetness indicator so that the color of the wetness indicator is changed.

The present invention relates to a sponge dressing for treating wounds comprised of a polymer sponge containing a plurality of antimicrobial dyes with at least one dye being gram positive and at least one other dye being gram negative and a silicon adhesive secured to a sponge surface. The sponge dressing can be exposed initially to gamma radiation and later sterilized by ethylene oxide or alternatively it can be sterilized by ethylene oxide and later irradiated by gamma radiation. The sponge dressing has a morphology characterized by an average pore throat diameter of 0.5-500 m and a porosity ranging from about 60% to about 99.5%. The sponge dressing can also contain at least one biofilm reducing agent, at least one chelating agent and an ionic and non-ionic surfactant.
