PRESERVATION DE L'ACTIVITE FONGICIDE EN SOLUTION AQUEUSE

摘要

The present invention provides a method for preserving the activity of a polyene fungicide in an aqueous solution comprising providing the said aqueous solution with a chelating agent and/or an anti-oxidation agent, wherein the said chelating agent and the said anti-oxidation agent are the same agent or are different agents. Preferably, the aqueous solution further comprises a polymer. Preferably, the aqueous solution comprises a latex. The invention allows the selection of a wider range of polymer compositions for the preparation of a polymer emulsion comprising a polyene fungicide, wherein the activity of the said fungicide is at least in part stable and wherein the said emulsion is suited for the production of food coatings.
