Unveil the natural splendor of Natamycin, also known as Pimaricin, an extraordinary discovery by DSM scientists over 50 years ago, sourced purely from nature's bounty. Since 1967, it has been a guardian of food integrity and, occasionally, a therapeutic aid against certain fungal infections.
Our Natamycin is expertly crafted using a pristine culture of Streptomyces natalensis bacteria, undergoing a meticulously monitored fermentation process. This guarantees the utmost purity and superior quality of the end product. Available in both versatile liquid and powder forms, it proudly carries DSM's esteemed brand name Delvo®Cid.

Function of Natamycin:
1. Efficiently halts the growth of yeasts and molds;
2. Guarantees high safety with a minimal required dosage;
3. Easily applied to food surfaces by spraying or dipping;
4. Exceptionally stable across a wide pH spectrum, active from pH 3 to 9.
Application of Natamycin:
1. In foods
For decades, Natamycin has been a pivotal force in the food industry, serving as a robust shield against fungal growth in dairy and enhancing the preservation of cheese, baked goods, meats, and beverages.
2. In Medical
Deployed in the medical sector to combat fungal infections, Natamycin proves effective against an array of fungi, including Candida, Aspergillus, Cephalosporium, Fusarium, and Penicillium.
A stalwart in the food industry for years, Natamycin offers a fresher, more natural alternative to traditional chemical preservatives, maintaining a neutral flavor and effectiveness less reliant on pH. Its versatile applications include: as an aqueous suspension for spraying or dipping, or as a powdered form with cellulose anti-caking agents,ideally blended or sprinkled into products.
