Abstract: This report provides a background analysis of the market for nisin and other commercially available antimicrobial food additives. The report concludes that there is a potential role for a new U.S.-based entity to compete with a nisin product that is cost-competitive or provides quality guarantees to satisfy U.S. buyers who have tight specifications for ingredient sourcing and food safety and quality oversight.
