Introduction of ingredients and influencing factors of mildew repellent（二）
Influencing factors of mildew inhibitor:
There are many influencing factors of anti - mildew agent, among which the main factors are microbiology and physicochemical factors. In the following, feed anti - mildew agent as an example to detail the influencing factors of anti - mildew agent.
(1) Microbiological factors: the most suitable pH range for different types and components of mildew preventers is different. For example, the suitable pH range of mildew preventers with benzoic acid is 2.5-4.0. This mildew preventer has no effect on many microorganisms after the pH reaches 5.5 or more. The types of microorganisms in feed and the degree of contamination caused by them are often uncertain, and sometimes some microorganisms will develop resistance, which has a certain impact on the effect of mildew control.
(2) Water content of feed: the water content of feed has a great influence on the growth of microorganisms. The experiment shows that the water content of feed is 17%-18%, which is the most suitable for the propagation and growth of sanitary clothes. The effect of moisture in feed on the effect of mildew preventer is very complex, and the dosage of mildew preventer should be adjusted accordingly for the feed with different water content.
(3) Temperature: the temperature suitable for most microorganisms is 25-30 degrees Celsius. But some particular microbes, such as Mucor and Rhizopus, thrive at temperatures between 25 and 40 degrees Celsius. Therefore, in the case of different use temperature, should also consider the different amount of mildew inhibitor.
(4) Feed composition: some feed containing special ingredients, such as calcium carbonate feed and protein feed can neutralize the acid components in the mildew preventer, reduce the use of mildew preventer effect, so this kind of feed, should increase the amount of mildew preventer
