Natamycin, also known as pimaricin. It is produced by fermentation of certain types of the bacterium streptomyces.
The solubility of natamycin is very low in water and in most organic solvents. Only 50mg natamycin can be dissolved in pure water at room temperature. The low solubility makes it very suitable for use on the surface of food. Natamycin is used in the food industry as a preservative. Natamycin can greatly extend the shelf-life of cheese, baked food, meat and beverage products.

Natamycin is a new broad and high-effective natural food preservative and the only approved anti-fungal preservative in the international area. Natamycin not only inhibits the growth of fungi, but also inhibits the production of their toxin. Natamycin has no effect on bacteria, so it does not prevent the natural maturing process of yogurt,cheese, fresh harm, sausage, etc. It would not impact food taste. Meanwhile, natamycin is difficult to be absorbed by human digestive tract so that it is safe for human being. Until now Natamycin has been approved as food preservative in morn than 40 countries, and is widely applied in cheese, meat food, cakes, fruit juice/sauce/jelly, salted products, and other foods.
Natamycin is mainly used in the food industry as a preservative. Natamycin can greatly extend the shelf-life of cheese, baked food, meat and beverage products.
