Description	HISTAMINE (C5H9N3) is a biogenic amine naturally present in many foods and body cells in amounts without toxicological significance. It is also a contaminant that is mostly found in the Scombridae family fishes such as tuna and mackerel or other seafood products when improperly handled or stored. The consumption of foods containing high levels of histamine may lead to an allergy-like food poisoning known as scombroid poisoning.BioAssay Systems’ histamine assay kit is based on histamine dehydrogenase catalyzed oxidation of histamine in which the formed electron mediator reduces a formazan (MTT) reagent. The intensity of product color, measured at 565 nm is directly proportional to histamine concentration in the sample.
Shipping Conditions	Shipping: On Ice
Storage	Storage: -20°C upon receipt
