- Safety
In June 1982, the US FDA officially approved natamycin as a food preservative. In 1996, the Chinese Food Additive Standard Chemical Technical Committee officially approved natamycin as a food preservative. The FAO/WHO Joint Expert Committee on Food Additives stipulates that the human body can unconditionally accept an intake of 0.3 mg of natamycin per kilogram of body weight per day. JECFA/EC also authorized the approval. The human body usually consumes much less than the safe amount, even the high consumption of cheese and sausages.
