Explore the Application of Natamycin:
1. In Foods
For decades, Natamycin has been pivotal in the food industry, acting as a robust barrier against fungal growth in dairy and prolonging the freshness of cheese, baked goods, meats, and beverages.
2. In Medical
In the medical field, Natamycin is a potent agent against a diverse range of fungi, including Candida, Aspergillus, Cephalosporium, Fusarium, and Penicillium, making it a versatile therapeutic option.
A leading choice in the food industry for years, Natamycin offers a fresher and more natural alternative to traditional chemical preservatives, featuring a neutral flavor and effectiveness less dependent on pH levels. Its versatile application includes use as an aqueous suspension for spraying or dipping, or in powdered form with cellulose anti-caking agents,perfectly blended or sprinkled into products to maintain and enhance quality.
