Significance of biogenic amines to food safety and human health

A. R. Shalaby
- 01 Oct 1996 - 
- Vol. 29, Iss: 7, pp 675-690
TLDR
The toxicity of biogenic amines to chicks in terms of loss of weight and mortality was also reported as mentioned in this paper, and the toxicity of histamine appeared to be enhanced by the presence of other amines such as cadaverine, putrescine, and tyramine.

Occurrence of biogenic amine-forming lactic acid bacteria in wine and cider.

TL;DR: Interestingly, species that have never been described to carry BA-producing pathway genes were identified in this study, and only one cadaverine-producer was detected and corresponded to Lactobacillus 30a, a collection strain not found in fermented beverages, although cADAverine is commonly detected in wines.

Biogenic amine production in Feta cheese

TL;DR: The formation of biogenic amines during Feta cheese ripening was investigated for 4 months in relation to the parent amino acids as mentioned in this paper, showing that Tyramine and putrescine were the main amines in mature samples (69.7% and 71.2% respectively).

Tyramine in foods and monoamine oxidase inhibitor drugs: A crossroad where medicine, nutrition, pharmacy, and food industry converge

TL;DR: A review of BAs illustrates variability of food components over time, progress of food industry toward a safer food supply, development of better drugs, and the necessity for medicine, nutrition, pharmacy, and food industry to work together.

The occurrence of N-nitrosamines, residual nitrite and biogenic amines in commercial dry fermented sausages and evaluation of their occasional relation

TL;DR: To estimate the food safety of the dry fermented sausages available on the Belgian market, a screening of the residual sodium nitrite and nitrate contents, biogenic amines and volatile N-nitrosamine concentrations was performed on 101 samples.

Histamine food poisoning: toxicology and clinical aspects.

TL;DR: The efficacy of antihistamine therapy, the allergic-like symptomology, and the finding of high levels of histamine in the implicated food suggest strongly that histamine is the causative agent, however, histamines ingested with spoiled fish appears to be much more toxic than histamine ingested in an aqueous solution.

Biogenic amines in cheese and other fermented foods: a review

TL;DR: The importance of histamine and biogenic amines in cheese and other fermented foods is focused on and one organism, Lactobacillus buchneri, may be important to the dairy industry due to its involvement in cheese-related outbreaks of Histamine-poisoning.
Journal ArticleDOI

Liquid chromatographic determination of biogenic amines in dry sausages

TL;DR: A liquid chromatographic method is described for the determination of biogenic amines found in dry sausages: tryptamine, phenylethylamine, putrescine, cadaverine, histamine, serotonin, tyramine, spermidine, and spermine.
