潮湿衣物产生的异味主要源于细菌大量繁殖。1奥斯陆莫拉菌是导致异味的主要罪魁祸首，根据日本2021年的研究，这种细菌产生的特定化合物造成了衣物的难闻气味。1细菌在潮湿环境中利用汗液和皮脂等物质作为养料快速增殖。1
不同织物对异味的敏感性存在明显差异。1聚酯等疏水织物比棉布更容易吸收汗液中的油性物质，为细菌提供更好的生存环境。1加拿大最近的研究证实，聚酯保留的异味化合物明显多于棉和粘胶纤维。1此外，2025年的研究发现洗衣机本身也是问题所在，机门密封条和洗涤剂抽屉周围存在持久的微生物生物膜，每个洗涤周期可能对清洁衣物造成重新污染。1
为了解决这一问题，专家建议采取多项措施。1衣物应在洗涤后30-60分钟内转移到烘干机或晾衣绳，确保充分快速干燥和良好通风。1洗涤前可用浓白醋溶液浸泡衣物，同时使用60°C热水洗涤并定期清洁洗衣机。1
Wet clothing develops unpleasant smells primarily due to bacterial overgrowth in damp environments, according to textile science research. The bacterium Moraxella osloensis is the main culprit responsible for laundry odor, with a 2021 Japanese study identifying the specific compounds this microorganism produces that cause the smell 1. Beyond bacteria in fabrics themselves, a 2025 study revealed that washing machines harbor persistent microbial biofilms around door seals and detergent drawers, potentially recontaminating clean clothes during each wash cycle 1.
Different fabric types retain odors with varying intensity. Hydrophobic synthetic textiles like polyester more readily absorb oily substances from sweat compared to natural fibers such as cotton, creating ideal conditions for bacterial growth 1. Recent Canadian research confirmed that polyester retains significantly higher concentrations of odor-causing compounds than cotton and viscose fibers 1.
To prevent and eliminate laundry odor, experts recommend transferring clothes from the washing machine to a dryer or clothesline within 30 to 60 minutes, ensuring rapid drying in well-ventilated conditions 1. Additional preventive measures include soaking garments in concentrated white vinegar solution before washing, using 60°C hot water for laundering, and regularly cleaning the washing machine itself 1.
