What is Natamycin and How Does it Preserve Dairy Products?

Natamycin is a naturally occurring substance produced by a mold  called  Streptomyces. - Used also as a preservative. This is to say that it helps keep  food safe and fresh for longer  - a valuable function. Natamycin does this  by arresting the development of harmful bacteria  and fungi that can cause food to spoil. For  things like dairy, this is critical—those items are so soft and  likely to mold or go rancid. As cheese is made it must be kept safe, and so natamycin is sprinkled in. It may also appear in other types of cheese,  such as cheddar or mozzarella. It’s  safe for human consumption, which is  a marked  plus. It tasteless and  odourless as well, so  it won't affect that delicious  food product you natural make and  eat - click here to  try pasteurizing cream with  Skim.
