Can MDF-500 neutralize mold mycotoxins?
The industry has generally said that stopping mold growth and killing spores is not enough. You should physically remove excessive molds in order to eliminate the mycotoxins. Even if molds are dead, mycotoxins are still present in the cell walls and can cause health problems. MDF-500 may address the mycotoxin concern. The product neutralizes mycotoxins by combining them with either oxygen or water to change their chemical makeup.1 In independent laboratory testing, the Sandia decon formula has decontaminated mycotoxins produced by the Stachybotrys, Fusarium, Aspergillus and Penicillium species of mold, so future testing needs to confirm that MDF-500 can neutralize mycotoxins in water- damaged buildings.
