Changes in the concentrations of biogenic amines (BAs) in fresh beef, pork, and chicken breast and leg were investigated during storage, and the relationship between the content of volatile basic nitrogen (VBN) and BAs was evaluated. As the storage period increased, the levels of putrescine (PUT), cadaverine (CAD) and tyramine (TYM) increased in all the meat samples, except for TYM in beef (p<0.001). The level of BAs in beef, pork and chicken changed but the extent of these changes was different among the kinds of BAs and meats. Measurement of the VBN content was confirmed as a good index for interpreting the specific BAs content in general, such as PUT, CAD, and TYM, as well as evaluating a meat's freshness during storage. However, the kinds of BAs which can be predicted from the VBN content varied in different meats (p<0.05).

A modification of decarboxylating agar medium as described by niven was performed to improve the detection method of biogenic amine-producing bacteria and to eliminate the false-positive. A total of 120 bacterial strains isolated from kimchi were used to evaluate different dicarboxylating agar media and for screening biogenic amines. Potential false-positives ranged from approximately 66 to 79% of the strains tested in the already well-known media. In our improved medium, none of the 120 strains showed the potential false-positives. There was a good agreement (81.7%-87.5%) between the results obtained by the improved medium and by HPLC analysis. Consequently, this medium was greatly improved in screening biogenic amine-producing bacteria and discarding false-positives. Of the 120 kimchi isolates, 14.2, 18.3, 37.5, and 0.8% were found by HPLC to be the producers of histamine, tyramine, putrescine (as a form of spermine), and cadaverine, respectively. The proportion of biogenic amine producer during kimchi fermentation increased to a maximum at an immature period and decreased thereafter.

The changes of physicochemical and microbiological states of Myeolchi-jeot, a Korean salted and fermented anchovy, were investigated during 20 days of storage at $4^{\circ}C,\;15^{\circ}C,\;and\;30^{\circ}C$. A total of 314 bacterial strains isolated from Myeolchi-jeot samples at different time intervals were identified, and their abilities to produce biogenic amines were determined by both decarboxylating agar media and HPLC analysis. The salinity and water activity of Myeolchi-jeot changed little, while the pH increased slightly over 20 days at the tested temperatures. A significant increase of total plate count was observed in the sample stored at $30^{\circ}C$. Staphylococcus spp. were dominant in Myeolchi-jeot, and its amine productivity was very weak. Bacillus spp. appeared increasingly with the progress of storage at all temperatures tested, and the increase was considerably dependent on the increase of storage temperature. Also, 58-73%, 83-90%, 81-90%, and 83-93% of Bacillus strains had the ability to produce histamine, tyramine, putrescine, and cadaverine, respectively. Therefore, the main amine producer in Myeolchi-jeot stored for a long period seems to be the genus Bacillus, especially B. licheniformis.

This study was performed to examine the levels of biogenic amines (BAs) in foods of animal origin such as egg, ham, sausage, milk, cheese and yoghurt distributed on Korean domestic markets, and to compare the results with those of western countries. Egg yolk had more BAs than egg white. BAs detected in ham samples were the highest level in barbecued tender loin ham. Sausage samples had less BAs than ham samples. However, the delicatessen sausages had significantly higher levels of histamine than the other sausage samples (p<0.001). Cadaverine, spermidine and spermine were detected in market milks and their concentrations were very low compared with other samples. In Cheddar cheese, tyramine (44.46${\pm}$0.83 ${\mu}$g/g) was the major BA. The major BA of stirred yoghurt samples was histamine. These results suggest that BAs of the foods of animal origin distributed on Korean domestic markets were not much different from those of western countries and would not cause any harmful effect to consumers.

This study investigated the quality of seven commercial salted and fermented sand lance Ammodytes personatus sauces by measuring their chemical compositions, bacteria concentrations, and biogenic amine contents. The sauces had a 63.97-67.32% (mean: 65.72%) moisture content, 23.16-24.03% (mean: 23.60%) salinity, 5.51-6.14 (mean: 5.81) pH, 164.76-217.98 mg/100 g (mean: 182.97 mg/100 g) volatile basic nitrogen, 0.94-1.42% (mean: 1.24%) total nitrogen, and 673.77-791.86 mg/100 g (mean: 720.76 mg/100 g) amino nitrogen content. Viable cell counts ranged from $1.2{\times}10^1$ to $2.9{\times}10^2CFU/mL$, and number of biogenic amine-forming bacteria was very low or not detected. Overall, the tested samples had average levels of histamine of 301.02 mg/kg, cadaverine of 29.78 mg/kg, tyramine of 199.21 mg/kg, putrescine of 183.00 mg/kg, and tyramine of 13.01 mg/kg. This strongly suggests that it is necessary to monitor the biogenic amine contents of commercial salted and fermented sand lance sauces carefully to ensure consumer health.

The myeolchi-jeot samples were divided into different groups with or without the supplementation with biogenic amines. Subsequently, the samples were placed in an oven at $80^{\circ}C$ for 1 hr to allow the chemical reaction to proceed, and then were analyzed for N-nitrosamine contents using GC-TEA. N-nitrosamine was not detected in any of the myeolchi-jeot samples which had been treated with/without sodium nitrite. On the other hand, the yield of N-nitrosopyrrolidine from 1,000 mg/kg of putrescine and spermidine in the myeolchi-jeot samples (treated with 5 mg/kg of sodium nitrite) was 0.002 and 0.014%, respectively. N-nitrosamine was not produced from any other biogenic amines like, histamine, tyramine, cadaverine and spermine. In addition, curing and heating were the factors which influenced the formation of N-nitrosamine during the nitrosation of biogenic polyamines. For the formation of N-nitrosamine in the food systems, treatment with sodium nitrite and heating at appropriate temperature along with the satisfied supplementation of biogenic polyamines are required.

Agmatine iminohydrolase (EC 3.5.3.12) catalyzes the hydrolysis of agmatine into putrescine. The enzyme seems to be one of the critical enzymes in putrescine biosynthesis. The enzyme was purified to homogeneity from Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer by combined method of ammonium sulfate 1 fractionation, DEAR anion exchange column, hydroxyapatite column and agmatine carboxyhexyl Sepharose 4B affinity column. The molecular weight estimated by native pore gadient polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis was 71, 000 Dalton, while that estimated by SDS-PAGE was 70, 000 Dalton, indicating a monomeric enzyme. The optimal pH and temperature were 9.0 and 37$^{\circ}C$, respectively. The Km and 1 Vmax for agmatine were 8.3 mM and 14.4 nmole/hr, respectively. Heat stability of this enzyme was high. The enzyme was observed to be inhibited by polyamines such as putrescine, cadaverine, spermidine and spermine. Especially, putrescine was a potent inhibitor of the purified enzyme. These results suggest that polyamines could be important in growth regulation of Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer.

The effect of marination with black currant juice (BCJ) was investigated for their effects on meat quality and content of biogenic amines (BAs) [putrescine (PUT), cadaverine (CAD), histamine (HIM), tyramine (TYM), and spermidine (SPD)] in pork belly during storage at 9℃. BCJ was shown to have antibacterial activities against Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Additionally, the pH of pork belly marinated with BCJ (PBB) was significantly lower than that of raw pork belly (RPB) during storage. No significant difference in microorganisms between RPB and PBB was observed at day 0 of storage. However, at days 5 and 10 of storage, volatile basic nitrogen (VBN) was significantly decreased in PBB compared to RPB, and PBB also demonstrated significantly lower numbers of bacteria associated with spoilage (Enterobacteriaceae and Pseudomonas spp.) at these time-points. PBB was also associated with significantly reduced formation of BAs (PUT, CAD, TYM, and total BAs) compared to RPB at days 5 and 10 of storage. These results indicated that BCJ can be regarded as a natural additive for improving meat quality by preventing increased pH, VBN, bacterial spoilage, and inhibiting BAs formation during refrigerated storage.

This study was conducted to evaluate the chemical hazards of 74 kinds of commercial anchovy fish sauce in Korea by measuring their biogenic amine content. The biogenic amines detected in commercial anchovy fish sauce were tryptamine, putrescine, cadaverine, tyramine, spermidine, spermine, and histamine. Among them, histamine content was the highest with an average of 1,439.62±812.62 mg/kg. Excessive intake of histamine could result in chemical food poisoning characterized by high blood pressure, headache, and diarrhea. Accordingly, by simulating histamine exposure (repetition=10,000 times) based on the daily intake of 0.969 g of domestic anchovy fish sauce, we found that the estimated average histamine exposure was 24.49±55.48 ㎍/kg bw/day and that the margins of exposure (MOE) value were 139.18 at 1% and 66,141.07 at 95% of 10,000 simulations (9,500 times). As such, it was confirmed that 9,500 out of 10,000 simulations of MOE analysis significantly exceeded MOE 10. Therefore, the risk of exposure to histamine from ingestion of commercial anchovy fish sauce is approximately very low.
