Type of article: Article

Summary

OPTIMAL TEMPERATURE, LOWER TEMPERATURE LIMIT, EXTENT, AND RATE OF HISTAMINE PRODUCTION IN A TUNA FISH INFUSION BROTH (TFIB) VARIED FOR THE STRAINS OF PROTEUS MORGANII, KLEBSIELLA PNEUMONIAE, HAFNIA ALVEI, CITROBACTER FREUNDII AND ESCHERICHIA COLI STUDIED. THE LOWER TEMPERATURE LIMITS FOR PRODUCTION OF TOXICOLOGICALLY SIGNIFICANT LEVELS OF HISTAMINE IN TFIB WERE 280 K (7 DEG C) FOR K. PNEUMONIAE ; 288 K (15 DEG C) FOR BOTH P. MORGANII STRAINS ; AND 303 K (30 DEG C) FOR H. ALVEI, C. FREUNDII AND E. COLI.
