The effect of two anti-fungal compounds on the growth of molds that frequently appear on tanned leather
1997
Yapici, B.M. | Karaboz, I.
In this study, two fungicides with different chemical compositions and raw skins from domestic sheep have been used. These raw skins were both pickled (preserved pickled pelts) and chrome-tanned with and without fungicides. Each fungicide was used in the ratios of 0.005%, 0.015% and 0.030%, based on the pelt weight. Two fungicides (one mix phenolic-based and pentachlorophenol-free, the other TCMTB-based) were used to prevent the growth of mold such as Aspergillus niger, Aspergillus flavus, Penicillium rubrum and Alternaria spp. which are troublesome in pickled leathers and chrome-tanned leathers in the leather industry of our country. Minimum inhibitory concentrations of these fungicides were found.
