Natural Food Preservatives Natamycin 95%

Natamycin is an antimycotic product which have broad and effective action. It not only inhibits the growth of different moulds and yeasts, but also inhibits the production of their toxin. Commercial Natamycin contains 95% of the active substance. Small quantities of Natamycin can inhibit all moulds and yeasts, which cause food spoilage. Natamycin has no effect on bacteria, so it does not prevent in the natural maturing process of yoghurt , cheese , fresh Ham, sausage, ect.

Advantages：

• High-Efficiency Broad-Spectrum Antimicrobial Activity‌  

Natamycin exhibits strong inhibitory effects against filamentous fungi such as molds and yeasts, and can block the production of mycotoxins, delivering significant preservative effects.   

Natamycin has no inhibitory effect on bacteria, ensuring no interference with the natural ripening process of fermented foods such as yogurt and cheese. 

Precise Targeted Action‌   

Natamycin specifically binds to ergosterol in the fungal cell membrane, damaging the membrane structure and leading to cell death. Since human cells lack similar targets, it offers high safety.  

• Safety and Environmental Friendliness 

Naturally Derived and Low-Toxicity‌  

Made through Streptomyces fermentation, it is odorless, tasteless, and requires low dosage for food addition.  

Natamycin is hardly absorbed by the human digestive tract, and microorganisms are less likely to develop drug resistance.   

Good Environmental Compatibility‌  

It remains stable and effective within a pH range of 3-9, suitable for acidic to neutral foods (such as fruit juices and baked goods).
