Please, anyone who's good with iron chemistry see if this makes sense.

This "iron hypothesis" is one possability.

Frmo my understanding from what Greg has said the active ingredient
is an acetyl compound (if I rememebr correctly). Vinegar absolutely
is an algicide. I think that's the pathway that is responsible but
this is just a gut hunch.
