Natamycin market is also known commonly as pimaricin or natacyn. It is an anti-fungal agent produced during aerobic fermentation by the Streptomyces natalensis, a bacterium found commonly in soil. Natamycin is a polyene macrolide anti-biotic Natamycin is sparingly soluble in water and required in very low concentrations. available as an odorless, white, granular powder as well as crystalline solid. Commercially, Natamycin can be produced through industrial scale fermentation process with the help of Streptomyces natalensis followed by isolation of the antibiotic either through broth extraction or through seperation of the mycelium.
The mode of antifungal action of natamycin involves binding to specific receptors on the fungal membranes and is dependent on the presence of sterols in the fungal cell membrane, usually ergosterol. This binding causes leakages in the fungal cell membrane and leads to eventual death of the fungi. Natamycin is mostly used as an additive in food for preservation and protection against growth of fungi such as yeasts and moulds.
