Detection of biogenic amines in beer and identification of a producer

Annotation

Beer is known to be a multicomponent drink, its components exerting both positive and detrimental effect on human organism. Reduction of the content of biogenic amines in beer raises its safety. Histamine and other biogenic amines do not originate in beer from malt or barley, but are formed by microbial contaminants. The paper presents the analysis of beer samples, with biogenic amines concentrations being measured and histamine-synthesizing producer Lactobacillus brevis being determined. Histamine percentage in beer is a good indicator of hygienic conditions at barley storage and brewing.
