Delvocid®. Simple and effective product protection.
Delvocid® is an antimycotic with natamycin as active compound.
Pure natamycin has no colour, odour or taste and is effective in very small
quantities against moulds and yeasts. Delvocid® is not active against bacteria
or other microorganisms and will therefore not interfere with natural ripening
processes.
DSM has recently developed and patented improved
formulations of Delvocid®:
-
Delvocid®+ is an aqueous suspension of natamycin. Delvocid®
+ offers an extremely low sedimentation rate compared to standard
natamycin. So, in liquid food applications as well as in liquid spray and
dipping solutions, natamycin is easily kept in suspension. While standard
natamycin settles, Delvocid®+ is active where natamycin activity
is required. What’s more, Delvocid®+ delivers fast
solubility compared to standard natamycin which dissolves slowly when applied.
In food applications, the required natamycin concentration can be reached more
quickly with Delvocid®+. As Delvocid®+ is applied when
protection is required, the quicker the solubility the more effective the
protection will be.
-
Delvocid® Dip is a natamycin powder formulation to prepare dipping
suspensions for the surface treatment of cheese. Delvocid® Dip improves the
distribution of natamycin in the dipping bath as well as the adhesion of the
suspension to the whole cheese surface and thus results in significantly
better mould protection.
-
Delvocid® XT1 is a natamycin powder formulation to prepare dip and
spray suspensions for the surface treatment of cheese blocks and shredded
cheese. Delvocid® XT1 improves the distribution of natamycin in the suspension
as well as the adhesion of the suspension to the whole cheese surface. This
results in significantly better protection against yeast and mould.
-
DSM also offers Delvocoat® L; tailor-made, liquid, ready to use or
concentrated Delvocid® formulations that ensure optimal protection of the
cheese surface. Delvocoat® L is part of the Delvocoat® range. For more
