Unveil the natural radiance of Natamycin, also known as Pimaricin, a phenomenal discovery by DSM scientists over half a century ago. Extracted from nature's abundance, it has been protecting the purity of foods since 1967 and occasionally offering therapeutic relief against fungal infections.
Our Natamycin undergoes a meticulous crafting process, derived from a pure culture of Streptomyces natalensis bacteria. Following a strictly controlled fermentation process, we guarantee the highest purity and unparalleled quality of our product. Available in versatile liquid and powder formulations, it is proudly marketed under the esteemed DSM brand name Delvo®Cid.

Function of Natamycin:
1. Skillfully inhibits the growth of yeasts and molds;
2. Guarantees high safety with minimal dosage;
3. Easily applied to food surfaces through spraying or dipping;
4. Exceptionally stable across a broad pH spectrum, effective from pH 3 to 9.
Application of Natamycin:
1. In foods
For decades, Natamycin has been a vital element in the food industry, acting as a robust barrier against fungal growth in dairy, extending the freshness of cheese, baked goods, meats, and beverages.
2. In Medical
Deployed in the medical sphere for addressing fungal disorders, Natamycin effectively combats a wide range of fungi, including Candida, Aspergillus, Cephalosporium, Fusarium, and Penicillium.
A trusted pillar in the food industry for years, Natamycin presents a fresher alternative to traditional chemical preservatives, featuring a neutral flavor and efficacy that is less reliant on pH. It finds diverse applications: in aqueous suspension for spraying or dipping, or in powdered form with cellulose anti-caking agents,precisely mixed or sprinkled into products.
