Expert Verdict

HIGH PRIORITY: Malachite (copper(II) carbonate hydroxide) introduces copper ions. Malachite green (the dye) is banned in several applications due to toxicity โ€” ensure the mineral malachite is used, NOT malachite green. Copper ion levels must be quantified and controlled. Note: Saccharomyces/Gold Ferment has Annex II/296 restriction for gold โ€” verify no analogous restriction applies to copper-containing ferments in your target market
