Ula Anti-Mold Agent is an easy-to-use biocide-based solution for outdoor cleaning and disinfection. The anti-mold agent acts as a preventive primer that slows potential mold, mildew and algae growth. It is usually carried out using décor papers impregnated with amino thermosetting resins, mostly melamine-formaldehyde, urea-formaldehyde, or their mixture. Conventional laminates with non-bioactive surfaces are not able to reduce or stop microbial growth when contaminated with organic substances. In this work, zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles were applied into their surface structure to improve their anti-bacterial and anti-mold properties.
There are various chemicals that can be utilized as anti-mold agents in orange wrapping paper, including but not limited to:
1. Calcium propionate: This chemical is a common anti-mold agent used in food products. It is a calcium salt of propionic acid and is effective against a wide range of molds.
2. Sodium benzoate: This is a commonly used food preservative that can also function as an anti-mold agent. It is effective against a range of molds and yeasts.
3. Potassium sorbate: This chemical is another common food preservative that can serve as an anti-mold agent. It is effective against a variety of molds, yeasts, and bacteria.
4. Natamycin: This is a naturally occurring antifungal agent produced by the bacterium Streptomyces natalensis. It is frequently used as an anti-mold agent in food packaging.
The specific chemical utilized as an anti-mold agent in orange wrapping paper may depend on various factors such as the manufacturer, intended use of the paper, and regulatory requirements. It's always advisable to check the product label or consult the manufacturer for information on the specific chemicals used in the anti-mold treatment of orange wrapping paper.

Abstract🍩
Peanuts is known usage in making foods and generation of oil in Brazil like peanut candies and potential contaminated with several mycotoxigenic fungi as Aspergillus flavus. Therefore, it is possible A. flavus secreting some mycotoxins into contamination peanuts.🍬
This study is aimed to determine effects of gamma radiation and electron beam in reduction peanut candies contaminated with A, flavus. The samples of peanut candies were included two types of peanut candy, (A) Diet Peanut Candies, (B) Organic Peanuts Candies that divided treatments divided into two groups First: contaminated groups with A. flavus, and Second: control without contaminated which receive radiation of 0, 5 and 10 kGy dosage of electron beam EB and gamma radiation GR. Some samples of No inoculation were illuminated with a similar dosage to evaluate the sensors. 🍕
The results indicated that 0.80 of the samples had an average water capacity. Illumination or irradiation of gamma radiation and electron beam at a dosage of 5 and 10 kGy were able to eliminate the A. flavus in the samples of Brazil peanuts. Analyzes of Aflatoxin indicated that electron beam doses of 5 and 10 kGy lowers aflatoxins levels by 53.32 and 65.66% correspondingly. Moreover this same dosage of gamma radiation lowered the levels of toxins by 70.61 and 84.15% respectively as compared to the control groups. The irradiation energy could affect A. flavus without change in characterize tastes of peanut candy and potential reduction mycotoxins in this candy. 🍭
There are different types of anti-mold agents that can be used in orange wrapping paper, such as:
· Kobso’s anti-mold paper, which is waterproof, mildew, and odor-producing wrapping paper, used in leather products, textiles, toys, sports equipment, electronic products1. The principle of mechanical puncture to pierce the cell membrane of the mold.
· Anti-mold packing paper-G, which is produced from anti-mold agent, used to replace normal wrapping paper. This product is widely applied in garment as well as shoes and leather industry2. It can build an anti-bacterial environment inside the package through totally wrapping the products, to inhibit the growth of fungi, achieve the anti-mold purpose.
· Mouldproof paper, which is effective against mold, safe for the right user, never pollute the environment and make waste and garbage, and can adjust the release amount according to the surrounding temperature and humidity.
