A composition suitable for inhibiting the outgrowth of fungi is provided comprising a first ingredient which inhibits the biogenesis of a normal fungal cell wall and a second ingredient which is capable of perturbing the structure of the cellular membrane of said fungi, so that either the cellular integrity is essentially lost or cell division cannot take place, or both. The first ingredient preferably inhibits the anchorage of cell wall proteins in the cell wall of the fungi and is suitably a β-(1,6)-glucose polysaccharide, preferably β-gentiobiose or a pustulan fragment. The second ingredient is suitably a natural microbial membrane affecting substance (MMAS), preferably MB-21. The composition is particularly suitable as a preservative for inhibiting the outgrowth of fungi in food products, such as sauces, dressings, ketchups, and soups, but is also useful for preventing or inhibiting undesired fungal growth on other products such as personal health care products, e.g. soap bars.
本发明提供了一种适用于抑制真菌生长的组合物,该组合物由第一种成分和第二种成分组成,第一种成分可抑制正常真菌细胞壁的生物生成,第二种成分可扰乱所述真菌的细胞膜结构,从而使细胞完整性基本丧失或细胞分裂无法进行,或两者兼而有之。第一种成分最好能抑制真菌细胞壁中细胞壁蛋白的固定,最好是 β-(1,6)-葡萄糖多糖,最好是 β-龙胆多糖或脓菌素片段。第二种成分是天然微生物膜影响物质(MMAS),最好是 MB-21。该组合物特别适合作为防腐剂,用于抑制食品(如调味汁、调味品、番茄酱和汤)中真菌的生长,但也可用于防止或抑制其他产品(如个人保健品,如肥皂条)上不受欢迎的真菌生长。
