title: Simple and rapid paper chromatographic method for the simultaneous determination of histidine and histamine in fish samples.
abstract: A simple and rapid method for the simultaneous determination of histamine and histidine in fish samples is described. The method entails paper chromatography and is sensitive from 0.5 mug to at least 30 mug. The method is reproducible to within +/- 5% and compares favorably with a biological method for histamine determination.
