Natamycin Market - Global Industry
Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and
Forecast 2016 - 2024
Transparency Market Research Reports incorporated a definite
business overview and investigation inclines on "Natamycin
Market". This report likewise incorporates more illumination
about fundamental review of the business including definitions,
requisitions and worldwide business sector industry structure.
Natamycin 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. Natamycin and its broken down metabolite products do
not have toxicity for humans or animals. Repeated daily
natamycin intakes of more than 500 mg/kg, through cheese or
meat, have been found to cause diarrhea, vomiting and nausea in
humans.
Natamycin is primarily used as an essential ingredient in
packaged foods and beverages, especially in dairy and meat
products, for preservation. It is a preferred substitute for
traditional chemical preservatives. Potential benefits for the
utility of natamycin over chemical preservatives include neutral
taste or flavor impact and less pH dependence for efficacy.
Natamycin can be utilized in several ways such as aqueous
suspensions (brine mixtures) that can be sprayed on the
products’ surface or the product can be dipped into the solution.
It can also be used in powdered forms (along with certain anticaking
agents including cellulose) that can be sprinkled on
and/or mixed into the food product. Natamycin is also used in

pharmaceuticals and drugs as antifungal preservatives and in
antifungal creams or solutions for skin, eyes or oral infection.
Natamycin is not absorbed by the body and does not cause any
systemic infections in humans.
Natamycin market is driven by its demand for manufacturing
preservatives for dairy and meat food products such as cheese
and sausages. Demand growth is expected to be driven by the
growth of global population and increased demand for dairy and
meat products. Additionally, increased use in antifungal
pharmaceutical products is expected to fuel market growth.
However, slow adoption in North America and Latin America
might restrain market growth. Further, there is a wide range of
artificial chemical preservatives available as a substitute for
Natamycin. New product development using stabilizing
additives to improve stability and shelf life can be a prospective
market opportunity for further demand growth.
In terms of geography, Asia Pacific is the largest as well as the
fastest growing consumer of Natamycin riding on high sales of
end use application products such as dairy and meat food
products to its large population base. Two of the most populated
countries, China and India are situated in Asia. Both these
countries are growing rapidly and witnessing rising disposable
income and purchase power parity of the general population.

This in turn is expected to drive demand for consumer goods
using Natamycin.
Europe is another major consumer for Natamycin especially in
cheese and sausages. North America is expected to witness
comparatively slower growth than other regions due to nonclearance
from the regulatory bodies in the region.
Some of the key market players include Qingdao FTZ United
International Inc., Toku-E Company, D & F Control Systems
Inc. and DSM Food Specialties among others.
