Compositions containing anti-microbial agents and methods for making and using same are provided. Chemical controllers are added to the compositions for controlling the rate of release of the anti-microbial agents. The chemical controllers include vitamin E. A blend of anti-microbial agents can be included in the composition for destroying and inhibiting the growth of a wide variety of different microorganisms including bacteria, viruses, and fungi. Specifically, vitamin E has been found to control the rate of release of 10, 10'-oxybisphenoxarsine (OBPA) and 2-(4'-thiazolyl) benzimadazole (TBZ). The anti-microbial agent(s) and the vitamin E are incorporated into polymeric materials. The polymeric materials can be formed into films, sheets, or tubing. Vitamin E controls the rate of migration of the anti-microbial agents so that harmful amounts of the anti-microbial agents are not released. The compositions have many applications, including uses in conjunction with agricultural products, food products, and consumables.
