Which is worse green or white mold and do preservatives change the type of mold?

The most dangerous mold strains are: Chaetomium (pronounced Kay-toe-MEE-yum) and Stachybotrys chartarum (pronounced Stack-ee-BOT-ris Shar-TAR-um) as they have been proven to produce demylenating mycotoxins among others, meaning they can lead to autoimmune disease. Under certain growth and environmental conditions, both of these fungi release toxic, microscopic spores and several types of mycotoxins that can cause the worst symptoms which are usually irreversible such as neurological and immunological damage. Chaetomium starts out white in color and then turns into a gray or olive green color. Stachybotrys starts out dark green in color turning into black mold. I don't believe preservatives will help in changing the type of mold. I would also add that Aspergillus and Penicillum molds can also be dangerous. Aspergillis can be infectious and Penicillum molds can be highly allergenic to those with mold sensitivities. Preservatives cannot change the species, only help prevent the onset of growth, though eventually mold always wins.
