REVIEW Biogenic Amines in Food
نویسنده
چکیده
Recent trends in food security are promoting an increasing search for trace compounds that can affect human health. Biogenic amines, the so-called natural amines with physiological significance, belong to this group of substances. Their amounts are usually increased during controlled or spontaneous microbial fermentation of food or in the course of food spoilage. Several methods exist for isolation, identifying, and determination of biogenic amines in food.

Biogenic amines in sea products
Sea food products are being processed through various techniques, i.e. chilling and freezing, heating, irradiating, and curing; regard to the condition of processing, formation of biogenic amines are probable, as raw materials are usually rich in respective precursors. Fermented fish products are among the most vulnerable items to this challenge, these products due to their nutritious value are...
متن کاملBiogenic amines determination in some traditional cheeses in West Azerbaijan province of Iran
Biogenic amines (BA) are nitrogenous compounds that possess biological activity. The source of production is the microbial decarboxylation of amino acids. This compounds are found in various types of cheese. The aim of this work was to evaluate the BA content of some traditional cheeses in West Azerbaijan province Iran. For this purpose, 70 samples of Koopeh, 10 samples of Lighvan and 5 samples...
متن کاملMolecular methods for the detection of biogenic amine-producing bacteria on foods.
Biogenic amines are low molecular weight organic bases that can be detected in raw and processed foods. Several toxicological problems resulting from the ingestion of food containing biogenic amines have been described. Biogenic amines are mainly produced by the decarboxylation of certain amino acids by microbial action. Since the ability of microorganisms to decarboxylate amino acid is highly ...

ABSTRACT Background and Objective: Raw fish is a highly perishable product that deteriorates due to chemical changes and microbial growth. Biogenic amines (BAs) are generated in course of bacterial spoilage in fish that may lead to BA toxicity, particularly in adverse storage conditions. The purpose of this study was to prevent the BAs toxicity caused b...

Braz. J. Vet. Res. Anim. Sci., São Paulo, v. 50, n. 6, p. 430-446, 2013 Abstract Biogenic amines (BAs) are formed as a result of specific free amino acid decarboxylation. Analysis of these metabolites may be of great importance to determine food quality and for monitoring the levels of biogenic amines such as histamine and tyramine related to intoxication episodes in humans. Chromatography is a...
