“…Hence, it is possible that in such conditions, either powerful histamineproducing bacteria dominate, or at least the populations of weak histamine producers cannot reach the detection limit of PCR. These data are in agreement with previous culture studies concluding that most of bacteria responsible for high levels of histamine in fish stored at temperatures abuse almost exclusively belong to Enterobacteriaceae (27,28,37,38,51,62). M. morganii is generally the most prevalent and potent histamine producer in fish (25,27,28,37,38,40,51).…”
