This study significantly demonstrates the inhibition of molds from mycotoninx to toxin producing fungi through the use of specific wood products.

Houses, for example, often use specific lumber products on the inside walls. While more effective than untreated lumber, molds still grow fewer of which release toxins such as Aflatoxins, Ochratonins, or Tricothecenes, all of which are dangerous to humans. Unfortunately, these particles are not easy to detect due to their size. They have been associated with neurological conditions, urinary tract conditions, skin lesions, and malignancies of kidney, bladder and the brain in both animals and humans.
