Explanation

Antifungal agent, fungicide and bacteriostatic agent, also known as antimicrobials, are additive that can destroy the cell structure of microorganisms, inhibit enzyme activity, kill molds or inhibit the growth or reproduction of microorganisms. They are used to inhibit the reproduction of microorganisms, but cannot have an inactivating effect on them, that is, they cannot kill microorganisms and can only inhibit their growth or reproduction. Some common substances with this function include chlorophenols, organic nitrogen sulfur compounds, and amines, such as 2,2 '- dihydroxy-5,5' - dichlorodiphenylmethane, zinc and sodium dithiocarbamate salts, dithiocyanomethane, isothiazolinone, and acetate of long-chain alkyl amines. These additive are widely used in food industry, pharmaceutical industry, cosmetics industry and other fields to maintain the quality and durability of products.
