BIOGENIC AMINES OCCURRENCE INTO WINES AND BEERS FROM THE ROMANIA MARKET
Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the level of nine biogenic amines (putrescine (PUT), cadaverine (CAD), tyramine (TYR), tryptamine (TRY), 2-phenethylamine (2-PHE), histamine (HIS), spermidine (SPD), spermine (SPM) and agmatine (AGM)) into wines and beers from the local market of Romania. Their concentration in beer is of great interest not only for their potential risk to human health but also because they could have a role as chemical indicators of unwanted microbial contamination or deficient processing conditions. For this study were chosen forty samples of wines (twenty samples of white wine - Chardonay, Italian Riesling, Muscat Otonel, and twenty samples of red wine - Sauvignon Blanc, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinoit noir, respectively) and fifteen samples of beers. The biogenic amines have been analysed using an High-Performance Liquid Chromatography with Diode-Array Detection (HPLC-DAD) method with pre-column derivatisation. Neither one samples have exceed the level of 100 mg biogenic amines/l.
