The activity of 2-thiocyanomethylthiobenzothiazole (TCMTB) and selected organotin com pounds (OTC = TBTO, TBTS, TBTCA and TBT-DEDTK) against moulds was evaluated by means of mycologicaltestsin which treated and subsequently naturally aged beechwood samples were exposed to the effect of a mixture of six moulds under laboratory conditions. Natural ageing of the treated samples took place under an angle of 45’, and during periods of 0, 2 or 4 months. TCMTB was characterized as the relatively most stable fungicide with antimould activity.
