The importance of biogenic amines stems from their toxicity and their potential as a cause of food poisoning. After fish, cheese has been the foodstuff most often responsible for cases of food poisoning caused by ingestion of biogenic amines. Changes in biogenic amine (histamine, tyramine, putrescine, cadaverine, tryptamine, isopentylamine, spermidine, and phenylethylamine) content during the ripening of a cheese made from raw ewe's milk were studied, together with the effects of pasteurization and a commonly used commercial starter and indigenous starter cultures. Biogenic amines were determined by high-pressure liquid chromatography following extraction from the cheese and derivatization with dansyl chloride. Levels of histamine, potentially the most toxic amine, in the semihard Idiazábal cheese were very low. Tyramine, putrescine, and cadaverine were the main amines present in this type of cheese. Levels of those amines increased during ripening. Pasteurization of the milk brought about a reduction in the biogenic amine content of the ripened cheese, irrespective of the starter culture employed. The indigenous starter cultures considered in this study produced higher levels of histamine and cadaverine and lower levels of tyramine and putrescine than the commercial starter culture tested.

The aim of the study was to evaluate the biogenic amine (BA) content of <em>Ciauscolo</em> salami made with and without the use of a selected started culture. Two batches of salami were made following the guidelines of the Protected Geographical Indications: with and without adding a commercial starter culture made of <em>Lactobacillus plantarum</em> and <em>Staphylococcus xylosus</em>. Six samples of salami per batch were collected at different ripening times (0, 15, 30, 45 and 60 days) for physical, chemical and microbiological analyses and for the determination of BA content. No differences were recorded for physical, chemical and microbiological analyses except for <em>Staphylococcus</em> spp. count at the time of casing (T0) and Total Volatile Basic Nitrogen from 30 days (T2) to the end of the ripening time (60 days, T4). After 60 days of ripening, the use of selected starter culture significantly affected the amount of putrescine (195.15 <em>vs</em> 164.43 mg/100 g in salami without and with starters, respectively), cadaverine (96.95 <em>vs</em> 104.40 mg/100 g in salami without and with starters, respectively), histamine (81.94 vs 69.89 mg/100 g in salami without and with starters, respectively) and spermine (36.88 <em>vs</em> 33.57 mg/100 g in salami without and with starters, respectively). Despite significantly higher values of TVBN, the use of selected starter culture determined no significant effects on the BA content of the products.

The effectiveness of selected starter cultures and high hydrostatic pressure after ripening was evaluated to improve the safety and quality of slightly fermented sausages. Inhibition of common foodborne pathogens, spoilage bacteria, and biogenic amine content was studied. Random amplification of polymorphic DNA and plasmid profiles were used to monitor the competitiveness of the starter cultures during fermentation and ripening. Lactobacillus sakei CTC6626 and Staphylococcus xylosus CTC6013 dominated L. sakei CTC6469 and S. xylosus CTC6169 independently of the product assayed. Starter cultures were able to control the growth of Listeria monocytogenes, Enterobacteriaceae, Enterococcus, and the biogenic amine content. A pH decrease below 5.3 at the seventh day of fermentation was crucial. Salmonella spp. counts decreased significantly during ripening independently of the use of starter culture and product. High hydrostatic pressure treatment was necessary to ensure absence of Salmonella spp. in final products.

In this study, biogenic amine content in Pa (green onion) kimchi and Gat (mustard leaf) kimchi, Korean specialty kimchi types, was determined by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Many kimchi samples contained low levels of biogenic amines, but some samples had histamine and tyramine content over the safe levels. Based on the comparative analysis between the ingredient information on food labels and biogenic amine content of kimchi samples, Myeolchi-aekjeot appeared to be an important source of biogenic amines in both kimchi. Besides, through the 16s rRNA sequence analysis, Lactobacillus brevis appeared to be responsible for the formation of biogenic amines (tyramine, β-phenylethylamine, putrescine, and cadaverine) in both kimchi, in a strain-dependent manner. During fermentation, a higher accumulation of tyramine, β-phenylethylamine, and putrescine was observed in both or one (for putrescine) of kimchi types when L. brevis strains served as inocula. The addition of Myeolchi-aekjeot affected the initial concentrations of most biogenic amines (except for spermidine in Gat kimchi) in both kimchi. Therefore, this study suggests that using appropriately salted and fermented seafood products for kimchi preparation and using biogenic amine-negative and/or biogenic amine-degrading starter cultures would be effective in reducing biogenic amine content in Pa kimchi and Gat kimchi.

In this study, biogenic amine content in two types of fermented radish kimchi (Kkakdugi and Chonggak kimchi) was determined by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). While most samples had low levels of biogenic amines, some samples contained histamine content over the toxicity limit. Additionally, significant amounts of total biogenic amines were detected in certain samples due to high levels of putrefactive amines. As one of the significant factors influencing biogenic amine content in both radish kimchi, Myeolchi-aekjoet appeared to be important source of histamine. Besides, tyramine-producing strains of lactic acid bacteria existed in both radish kimchi. Through 16s rRNA sequencing analysis, the dominant species of tyramine-producing strains was identified as Lactobacillus brevis, which suggests that the species is responsible for tyramine formation in both radish kimchi. During fermentation, a higher tyramine accumulation was observed in both radish kimchi when L. brevis strains were used as inocula. The addition of Myeolchi-aekjeot affected the initial concentrations of histamine and cadaverine in both radish kimchi. Therefore, this study suggests that reducing the ratio of Myeolchi-aekjeot to other ingredients (and/or using Myeolchi-aekjeot with low biogenic amine content) and using starter cultures with ability to degrade and/or inability to produce biogenic amines would be effective in reducing biogenic amine content in Kkakdugi and Chonggak kimchi.

The aim of this study was to research decarboxylating bacterial strains and biogenic amine content in a typical Italian goat cheese (Robiola di Roccaverano). The study was performed on fresh and ripened samples of goat cheese manufactured from industrial and artisanal producers. Sixty-seven bacterial strains isolated showed decarboxylating activity, and Enterococcus faecalis was the most widespread decarboxylating species in all artisanal and industrial products. Pediococcus acidilactici and Enterococcus malodoratus were also identified as biogenic amine producers in Robiola di Roccaverano cheese. All the E. faecalis strains isolated in this study were able to decarboxylate tyrosine. Tyramine was the most abundant biogenic amine in cheese samples, while histamine was the most widespread. High amounts of these two biogenic amines were found in ripened samples (up to 2,067 mg/kg for tyramine and 1,786 mg/kg for histamine), whereas 2-phenylethylamine and tryptamine were present in almost all ripened cheeses at low concentrations. The detection of strains producing biogenic amines and the high concentrations of tyramine and histamine found in ripened Robiola di Roccaverano could represent a potential risk to the consumer.

Abstract A method has been developed to quantify synephrine in bitter orange raw material, extracts, and dietary supplements. Single-laboratory validation has been performed on the method to determine the repeatability, accuracy, selectivity, limit of detection/limit of quantification (LOQ), ruggedness, and linearity for p-synephrine and 5 other biogenic amines: octopamine, phenylephrine (m-synephrine), tyramine, N-methyltyramine, and hordenine, which may be present in bitter orange. p-Synephrine was found to be the primary biogenic amine present in all materials tested, accounting for &gt;80 of the total biogenic amine content in all samples except a finished product. Repeatability precision for synephrine was between 1.48 and 3.55 RSD. Synephrine recovery was between 97.5 and 104. The minor alkaloids were typically near the LOQ of the method (300900 g/g) in the test materials, and between-day precision for the minor compounds was poor because interferences could sometimes be mistakenly identified as one of the minor analytes. Recoveries of the minor components ranged from 99.1 to 103 at approximately 6000 g/g spike level, to 90.7 to 120 at 300 g/g spike level.
