Replacing moldy sealant (lemmy.world)

There are a few spots I've neglected to replace old brittle sealant (around the kitchen sink) or never sealed at all (new faucet I installed 8 months ago). Now there's black gunk accruing under and around the sealant.

When I go to replace the sealant, how do I kill the mold so it's safe to seal over again?

Thanks for any advice you can offer.

Yeah unfortunately it'll get into the grain of the wood and just keep reappearing once you clean it :(
