Histamine in Fish Products

Histamine is routinely used as an indicator of the presence of scombrotoxicosis in raw fish and fish products. Jenway have a range of simple fluorimeters suitable for histamine analysis that can be programmed with the settings for this and other similar tests. The use of Intelligent Filter Modules ensures that the correct excitation and emission filters for the selected test have been fitted; while for more complex tests up to six standards may be used to create an accurate calibration curve. This range is compatible with Jenway’s DataWay software package which enables results to be downloaded to a PC and easily exported to Excel.
