You can also find them in medicines, paints, cosmetics, wood, among others. This is commonly done to prevent decay caused by microbial growth or chemical changes. It comes in two modes called chemical and physical preservation. Chemical preservation is when chemical compounds are added to products, like the one we find in a lot of foods.
