Abstract

Histamine in fish sauce was rapidly determined with a single-line flow-injection system having an immobilized histamine oxidase/peroxidase reactor. Hydrogen peroxide produced by histamine oxidase (EC1.4.3.-) reaction was monitored photometrically by using N-ethyl-N-(2-hydroxy-3-sulfopropyl)-3-methoxyaniline and 4-aminoantipyrine as color reagents with peroxidase (EC 1.11.1.7) at 530 nm. The carrier solution was 0.1 M CHES-NaOH buffer (pH 8.0). The reactor was stable for 2 weeks. The detection limit was 3 μM and the range of determination was 10∼1000 μM. The sample throughput was about 20/h without any carryover. The results showed a good correlation with those obtained using a conventional HPLC method.
