Natural Food Preservatives And Additives

Since soft drinks, dairy and food industry became one of the most important industries in our daily life we have been very careful to select the best products conforming to European food additives standards.

MIMEX is acting as a sole agent for selling and distribution of many food and dairy additives such as:

     1.Natamycin (E 235)

(50% Natamycin & 50% Lactose)

Natamycin is a fungicidal substance that prevents the appearance of yeasts and moulds on foodstuffs. Used in small quantities, Pimaricin is extremely efficient. In addition, unlike other sorbates, it prevents yeasts and moulds from penetrating into the inside of the product, thereby eliminating the cost of further applications.

     2.Nisin (E 234)

Nisin is a polypeptide produced by some strains of Streptococcus Lactic (later termed Lactococcus lactis subspecies lactis) strain, which contains 34 amino acids. The product of Nisin is a grayish white or little yellow solid powder. It is a natural food preservative with high efficiency.

It has been over 40 years applied Nisin in the food industry in many countries.

     3.Starter Culture

STARTER CULTURES FOR YOGURT

Starter cultures specially designed for yogurt, to obtain the most efficient combinations depending on the desired type of product.

Their formulations include thermophilic and mesophilic starter cultures, mixtures of both and combinations of several strains.

     4.Microbial Rennet

New Generation is a thermo labile milk-clotting enzyme suitable for application in cheese-making factories, obtained from pure culture Mucor miehei, no pathogen. This enzyme has been fermented in a solution based in animal low weight nitrogen-compounds. NG 150 improves the activity of determined lactic starter cultures (Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactococcus spp), allowing to decrease the inoculation dose and regularizes acidification curves. Its use can also produce better dripping of curd; curd develops in vat in different way, in such a way that the grain remains more permeable and lacto whey drains much better.

It produces improvements of texture (more firmness), keeping its softness and cheese flavor made with this coagulant.

To sum up NG 150:

-Ensure a great regularity in manufacturing.

-Improvement of cheese-making yield.

-Better organoleptic quality.

 

     5.Other dairy enzymes, starter cultures, transglutam, juice and food flavors and additives.
