Unveil the natural splendor of Natamycin, or Pimaricin, a groundbreaking compound unearthed by DSM scientists over fifty years ago. Sourced directly from nature, this preservative has been a guardian of food quality since 1967, with occasional therapeutic uses against fungal infections, making it an invaluable ally in both food preservation and health.
Our Natamycin is the epitome of precision-crafted excellence, developed through the sophisticated fermentation of Streptomyces natalensis bacteria. This meticulous process guarantees unparalleled purity and quality. Available in both liquid and powder forms, it proudly carries DSM's esteemed brand name Delvo®Cid.

Function of Natamycin:
1. Masterfully inhibits the growth of yeasts and molds with precision;
2. Delivers exceptional safety with its minimal dosage requirements;
3. Easily applied to food surfaces through efficient spraying or dipping methods;
4. Demonstrates extraordinary stability across a wide pH spectrum, effective from pH 3 to 9.
Application of Natamycin:
1. In foods
For decades, Natamycin has been an indispensable asset in the food industry, serving as a robust defense against fungal invasions in dairy and ensuring prolonged freshness for cheese, baked goods, meats, and beverages.
2. In Medical
In the medical realm, Natamycin serves as a potent agent against a diverse array of fungal infections, including those caused by Candida, Aspergillus, Cephalosporium, Fusarium, and Penicillium.
A beacon of innovation in the food industry, Natamycin presents a fresher, more natural alternative to traditional chemical preservatives. It impresses with a neutral flavor and effectiveness less dependent on pH levels. Versatile in application, it is available as an aqueous suspension for spraying or dipping, or in powdered form with cellulose anti-caking agents,perfectly blended or sprinkled into products to ensure consistency and quality.
