Some soft tissue fungi can be killed at very low ppm levels for a few day with anoxic argon treatments. Fungi spore with change, high humidity, low humidity etc and with differences in argon verses nitrogen. Its a protective mechanism to sustain. Early research has been done to realize the

Dear pestlist friends, >From our experience, when it comes to funghi anoxia doesn't interfere with them (at least at a point that could be considered a treatment). For this kind of problems mixing insects and funghi, we use anoxia and for selected critical items with fungus we find freezing and unf

Nitrogen is not totally inert, reacts with some metals that can be used as pigments.. Fungi acceleration is after opening the chamber, not in the chamber. More researchs needs to be done in this area, hopefully it will be. Bill In a message dated 10/13/2010 9:53:11 A.M. Eastern Daylight
