Histamine Analysis
Histamin analyse
Histamine is produced by microbial decomposition of the amino acid histidine and is stored in the cells.
In perishable foodstuff like fish, sausages, cheese, wine or milk the concentration of histamine is an indicator for the freshness and ultimately for quality of the product.
The consumption of histamine-containing food can lead to serious poisoning. This is why it is absolutely necessary
to have quick and reliable controls for the histamine concentration in both food and feed.
From an in-situ quick test to a complete kit for the analysis of biogenic amines LCTech offers reliable and inexpensive tools for the analysis of histamine.
