Use of Kojic acid
1. Kojic acid has bactericidal and insect-repellent effects.
2. Used as a flower retaining agent to extend flower preservation and shelf life
3.Kojic acid to foods will not affect its own taste, aroma and texture, but also hinder the conversion of nitrite into nitrosamines which are carcinogenic to human body. This hindrance and inhibition on cured meat products is very important.
4. In terms of agricultural production, kojic acid can be used as a biological pesticide, an insecticide and a biological fertilizer. The effect of increasing yield and income of food and vegetables is significant.
