“…Often, however, the effectiveness of natural biocides is much lower than that of nanometals, despite higher dosing of the polymer material. There are also problems regarding the high processing temperatures of polymers, which often precludes quick degradation of the natural components [29][30][31]. On the other hand, the use of natural substances produced by microorganisms, such as natamycin, nisin, astaxanthin, plantaricycline, lacticin, is often economically unprofitable but despite successful laboratory research results, they are not implemented in the industry [32,33].…”
