Product Description
Natamycin, also named Pimaricin, is a natural fermentation-derived antifungal raw material. Different from broad-spectrum bactericides, it only acts on fungi while retaining bacterial activity, making it uniquely suitable for fermented food preservation and clinical fungal infection treatment.
