REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE This investigatory project aims to make use of rambutan peeling extracts that is high in phenolic compounds such as tannin and saponin that exhibits antioxidant activity and antibacterial activity against pathogenic bacteria. Although the seeds contain such compounds the peeling exhibit greater amount of the said compounds. Rambutan is a very popular fruit cultivated in the Philippines and it is eaten in large amounts. The rambutans rind is quickly discarded and

fiber fabric still possesses excellent antibacteria functions. The test result shows over 70% death rate after bacteria are being incubated on bamboo fibre fabric. Bamboo fiber’s natural antibacteria function differs greatly from that of chemical antimicrobial – as it has no allergic reactions. Green & Biodegradable Bamboo fiber is praised as "the natural‚ green‚ and ecofriendly new-type textile material of 21st century" As a regenerated cellulose fiber‚ bamboo fiber is 100% made from bamboo through
