Product details
Natamycin has strong inhibitory ability to molds, yeasts and fungi, but has no inhibitory effect on other microorganisms such as bacteria and viruses.
Natamycin has a certain resistance to heat treatment, relatively stable in the dry state, can withstand a short period of high temperature (100 ℃); but because it has a cyclic chemical structure, more sensitive to ultraviolet rays, so it is not suitable for contact with sunlight. The anchor stability of Natamycin activity is affected by PH value, temperature, light intensity and oxidizing agents and heavy metals, so the product should avoid contact with oxides and sulfur-hydrogen compounds.
Uses of Natamycin.
Nathamycin is a "polyene macrolide" fungal inhibitor produced by the fermentation of Streptomyces natalis, and is currently the only internationally approved antifungal biofood preservative with high efficiency, broad-spectrum, safety and natural properties.
Natamycin relies on its lactone ring structure to interact with sterols on fungal cell membranes to form sterol compounds, thereby destroying the structure of the cytoplasmic membrane. The hydrophilic portion of the macrolide forms water pores in the membrane, impairing cell membrane permeability, which in turn causes the exudation of amino acids, electrolytes and other substances from the fungus, and the death of the fungus.
Because, as a polyene antibiotic natamycin mechanism of action is to bind the sterols on the fungal cell membrane. The cell surface of the animal body lacks sterols, and it is not sensitive to polyene antibiotics. Therefore, natamycin is harmless to human body, and it is difficult to be absorbed by human digestive tract.
No mutagenic, carcinogenic and sensitizing effects. It is a natural antifungal agent, possessing the characteristics of safety, high efficiency, natural and health.
