Uses	Polyene antifungal antibiotic
Uses	analgesic, antimigraine
Uses	Pimaricin is a macrocyclic tetraene originally isolated from Streptomyces natalensis in 1957. Pimaricin exhibits broad spectrum antifungal activity against yeast and filamentous fungi by binding specifically to ergosterol to block fungal growth. Unlike the related polyenes, nystatin and filipin, pimaricin does not change the permeability of the plasma membrane. Pimaricin is used in the food industry for surface treatment of cheeses as a mould inhibitor.
Uses	Pimaricin is a preservative for use as a coating on the surface of italian cheeses to prevent the growth of mold or yeast. It is tasteless, odorless, colorless, and does not penetrate the cheese. It is very active against virtually all molds and yeasts, but does not affect bacteria, thus not affecting the ripening and flavor improvement process of cheese. It can be applied as a dip, spray, or by other methods such as incorporation into the cheese coatings. It is used at levels ranging from 300 to 2,000 ppm.
