HOW NATAMYCIN IS USED IN THE SURFACE COATING OF CHEESE Treatment of the surface of cheeses is a common practice in the dairy industry. Antifungal and antibacterial are used to control the growth of fungi. The most commonly used is a plasticizer coating with natamycin or potassium sorbate. When natural additives were used to protect cheese against fungi and bacteria, the application of solubilised natamycin drops to the surface of the cheese by dipping was found to prolong the period before the product's expiry date by 60% compared to when those additives were not used.
