Polylysine is 100% natural and extremely safe – safer than the salt on your dinner table (LD50 for Polylysine is more than 5g/kg vs. 4g/kg for NaCl). It’s GRAS by the US FDA for a wide variety of applications and approved for use in food in Japan in Korea, where it’s been used for over 20 years.
It varies based on your application, condition, and your expectations, but generally 20-250ppm is recommended. In some applications, Polylysine works best in combination with other preservatives. Our sales staff can give you information specific to your application.
