What's Natamycin?
Natamycin-nearly white or cream yellow crystalline powder. It is an odorless, tasteless, low-dose and highly safe food preservative. Natamycin is a white to milky white odorless and tasteless crystalline powder prepared by controlled fermentation of Streptomyces nata, and usually exists in the enol structure. Its mechanism of action is to combine with fungal ergosterol and other sterol groups to inhibit the biosynthesis of ergosterol, thereby causing cell membrane distortion, eventually leading to leakage and cell death. Surface treatment of dough with natamycin in bakery food can significantly extend the shelf life. |

Application & Function of Natamycin
Food field Natamycin is a natural, broad-spectrum, highly effective and safe inhibitor of filamentous fungi such as yeasts and molds. It can not only inhibit fungi, but also prevent the production of mycotoxins. Natamycin is harmless to the human body, it is difficult to be absorbed by the human digestive tract, and it is difficult for microorganisms to develop resistance to it. At the same time, because of its low solubility, it is usually used for surface preservation of food. Biological preservatives. Medical field Natamycin is used to treat fungal infections, including Candida, Aspergillus, Fusarium, etc. It is also used as eye drops or oral medicine.
