Explore the awe-inspiring natural power of Natamycin, also recognized as Pimaricin. This extraordinary preservative, unveiled by DSM scientists more than 50 years ago, is drawn from nature's abundance. Since 1967, Natamycin has been a steadfast guardian of food quality, and on rare occasions, it extends its benefits to combat fungal infections therapeutically.
Our Natamycin is expertly produced through an immaculate culture of Streptomyces natalensis bacteria, guided by a stringently controlled fermentation process. This dedication to precision ensures the purity and exceptional quality of our product. Offered in both adaptable liquid and powder forms, it proudly carries the esteemed DSM brand. Delvo®Cid.

Functional Excellence of Natamycin:
1. Masterfully inhibits the growth of yeasts and molds;
2. Delivers exceptional safety even with minimal dosages;
3. Easily applicable on food surfaces through spraying or dipping techniques;
4. Displays remarkable stability across a wide pH spectrum, effective from pH 3 to 9.
Versatile Applications of Natamycin:
1. In the Culinary World
For generations, Natamycin has been pivotal in the food industry, serving as a robust barrier against fungal proliferation in dairy, enhancing the longevity and freshness of cheese, baked goods, meats, and beverages.
2. In Medical Treatments
In the medical realm, Natamycin confronts fungal afflictions, proving effective against a wide array of fungi including Candida, Aspergillus, Cephalosporium, Fusarium, and Penicillium.
As a leading light in the food preservation sector, Natamycin offers a fresher, more natural alternative to traditional chemical preservatives. With its neutral flavor and efficacy less dependent on pH levels, it can be applied as an aqueous suspension for spraying or dipping, or as a powdered form enhanced with cellulose anti-caking agents,seamlessly mixed or sprinkled into products.
