With food safety problems abounding, it is essential to explore some efficient and effective methods for monitoring food quality. To this end, we have developed a histamine-responsive carbon dots (CDs)-based sensing system for visual monitoring of food spoilage. In this system, the aldehyde group on the surface of CDs serves as the recognition sites to combine with the amino group on histamine to form a Schiff base that effectively enhances the fluorescence. On the other hand, 1-aminoanthraquinone (ANQ) was introduced as a reference signal to endow the fluorescent probe with self-calibrating capacity. As the histamine concentration increases, linear ratiometric response was obtained accompanied with a distinguishable fluorescence color change from red to blue. Besides, test strips-based smartphone visual assays were successfully used to evaluate and monitor the histamine levels in fish samples. Our proposed sensing strategy has been demonstrated to be efficient and robust along with great potential for real-time visual monitoring of food spoilage.

Histamine has been known as a momentous cause of biogenic amine poisoning. Therefore, the content of histamine in foods is strictly required to be controlled within a certain range. Here, an aptamer fluorescent sensor was developed for detection of histamine. Poly [(9, 9-di-n-octylfluorenyl-2, 7-diyl)-alt-(benzo [2,1,3] thiadia-zol-4, 8-diyl)] (PF8BT) and the styrene maleic anhydride copolymer (PSMA) were used for the preparation of PF8BT-Polymer dots (PF8BT-Pdots). PF8BT-Pdots and the cyanine3-phosphoramidite (Cy3) were linked through aptamer to achieve the ratiometric detection for histamine. PF8BT-Pdots were partly quenched by Cy3 due to the fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET), when the histamine molecule was recognized by aptamer on the surface of PF8BT-Pdots. A linear range (3–21 μmol/L) was obtained for histamine detection with a low limit of detection (LOD = 0.38 μmol/L). PF8BT aptamer Pdots (PF8BT-A) were used to detect histamine in simply treated aquaculture water and tuna. The cell imaging of HeLa cells presented a good biosecurity and outstanding fluorescent imaging capability of PF8BT-A. The aptamer fluorescent sensors provided a new platform for rapid and accurate detection of histamine in aquatic products and had great potential for the application in food safety and quality control.

The activity of nanozymes is dependent on their surface for catalysis, and bioconjugation or adsorption of DNA aptamers will promote their activity. This paper aims to develop a novel aptamer sensor, for rapid, sensitive and specific detection of histamine. The design of the aptamer biosensor is based on the adsorption of histamine aptamers onto the surface of Au NPs by bioconjugation, which promotes the peroxidase activity of the nanozymes. Since histamine is strongly selective and specific for histamine aptamers, the histamine aptamer can be detached from the surface of Au NPs and bound to histamine, during which the catalytic activity of the nanozymes falls back due to the detachment of the histamine aptamer, which can be quantitative analysis by the TMB-H 2 O 2 system. The decrease in enzyme catalytic activity became larger with increasing histamine concentration, with a good linear correlation. Finally, the histamine aptamer biosensor was constructed, which has the advantages of ultrasensitive, high-accuracy, and wide linear range. The linear range and detection limit are 10 −11 ∼10 −3 M and 1.22 × 10 −12 M, respectively. With reference to this aptamer sensor design, this approach can also be extended to other schemes where the aptamer is combined with Au NPs as a way to detect the corresponding molecules.

Herein, a colorimetric biosensor for histamine detection in meat is first established based on the enhancement of DNAzyme with peroxidase-mimic activity. Histamine can boost the generation of G-quadruplex sequences, and make them more easily bond with hemin to produce many DNAzyme molecules. In addition, histamine increases the affinity of DNAzyme to the substrate 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB). Therefore, the obtained DNAzyme can catalyze H 2 O 2 and dissolved oxygen to produce many reactive oxygen species (ROS), which cause the TMB molecule to lose two electrons and generate yellow products, exhibiting a clear absorption peak at 450 nm. The colorimetric biosensor has excellent sensitivity, and the detection limit is as low as 38 μg·L −1 for histamine. Moreover, the biosensor has high selectivity and anti-interference ability, and exhibits a good recovery rate in actual meats. The above results show that the strategy has potential for application in the detection of trace histamine in meats.

ObjectivesTo examine the possible anti-histamine effects of dipotassium glycyrrhizinate (DG), a dipotassium salt of glycyrrhizic acid, on histamine-mediated lung fibroblast activation, differentiation and proliferation; to investigate the potential and underlying mechanisms for pulmonary fibrosis (PF) treatment.MethodsRat primary lung fibroblasts were extracted to establish cell models; histamine, DG and loratadine (LTD, a histamine receptor antagonist) were applied. Cell proliferation, migration and cell cycle were explored; intracellular signal proteins were detected; mitochondrial membrane potential was examined.Key findingsThe anti-histamine effects of DG were found in a similar pattern of LTD on lung fibroblasts. DG inhibited histamine-induced cell activation, proliferation and migration; DG altered histamine-mediated mitochondrial membrane potentials. DG reduced the histamine-induced PAR-2 (a tryptase receptor) expression to impair mast cell tryptase co-working. Histamine-induced expressions of MMP-2, FAK, TNF-α, P38, iNOS were decreased by DG, while Bax and caspase-3, P53 were increased by DG against histamine effects. Histamine drove cells from G0/G1 to S phases, whereas DG rested cells by inhibiting G0/G1 and G2/M phases.ConclusionsThis study provided the evidences that DG can inhibit histamine-induced effects on lung fibroblasts and promote apoptosis of abnormally activated lung fibroblasts, implicating its potential therapeutic mechanisms against PF development, also for those histamine-related diseases.

Sensitive and rapid detection of histamine in fish sample was important for human health. A novel and facile method for on-site detecting histamine in fish was developed by tandem surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) with derivatized thin-layer chromatography. Histamine in tuna was firstly separated by TLC process on a diatomite plate, and then derivatized with fluorescamine (FSA). SERS is used for identification of histamine derivative by a portable Raman spectrometer. The operating conditions were optimized for improving the detection performance. Diatomite plate was suitable for separation and derivatization, 40 times concentrated Au colloid, 1 mM of FSA at pH = 8 were appropriate for the derivatization and SERS detection, and the limit of detection of histamine could achieve 9 ppb. The results indicated that the proposed method not only visualized the histamine on TLC plate but also improve the sensitivity in SERS, that could be employed for the on-site separating and detecting histamine from fish sample.

Urocanic acid, like histamine, is a degradation product of histidine that may accumulate over the storage of histidine-rich pelagic fish. Recently evidence from the dermatological and related fields has directed the attention of food scientists toward the adverse health effects of urocanic acid, mostly as a possible “missing factor” responsible for scombrotoxicosis besides histamine. However, experimental effort to study the hypothesis remains scarce, especially regarding the formation of urocanic acid in comparison to the well-documented histamine. Here we report a mixed-mode HPLC method for simultaneously analyzing urocanic acid (both the trans - and cis -isomers), histamine, and histidine in chub mackerel ( Scomber japonicus ) fillets and the use of the method to monitor their changes in concentration at typical refrigeration and abuse temperatures. The method features a simple, reliable chromatographic analysis in cation-exchange/reversed-phase/hydrophilic-interaction triple mode of retention, without the need of precolumn derivatization or addition of ion-pairing agents. At both 4 and 20 °C slow but consistent formation of trans -urocanic acid was observed over time with a relatively faster rate at 20 °C. Histamine formation, by contrast, occurred at 20 °C but ceased completely at 4 °C. In addition, we demonstrate the occurrence of trans -to- cis isomerization of UCA in chub mackerel fillets upon direct sunlight exposure: under our conditions, an isomerization yield around 13 % was achieved within hours on a sunny winter day. Overall, this study provides a chemical analysis method and relevant data for exploring the possible role of urocanic acid in the aetiology of scombrotoxicosis.

Food poisoning caused by excessive intake of histamine is a significant public health concern. Traditional analytical methods struggle to meet the demands for on-site monitoring of histamine in food. Colorimetry based on nanozyme catalysis can be applied to rapidly detect histamine, but some challenges remain in the specific response of nanozymes to histamine. Herein, a novel “off-on” colorimetric sensor was first established for histamine detection based on Cu 2+ -mediated laccase-mimic activity of flower-like Mn 3 O 4 nanoparticles ( Mnf ). This work proved that Cu 2+ can inhibit the laccase-mimic activity by hindering the electron transfer between Mnf and 2,4-DP molecules. Once histamine was present in the system, Cu 2+ was first consumed due to the coordination with histamine, resulting in the recovery of laccase-mimic activity of Mnf . The color of sensing solution can be converted to the corresponding RGB value by a smartphone for on-site detection of histamine in food. The colorimetric sensor has a limit of detection as low as 0.148 μg mL −1 , which is comparable to that of most colorimetric methods. Moreover, the colorimetric sensor exhibits high selectivity, and has considerable applicability for histamine detection in aquatic products.

Integrated one–dimensional CuO–nanowire arrays/Cu–foam (CuO–NWAs/Cu–foam) nanostructure, which was fabricated by oxidation and calcination, has been newly utilized as non–enzymatic electrocatalytic electrode for exploring histamine level. Under optimal condition of pH at 13 and potential at 0.55 V ( vs Ag/Ag/Cl), the sensitivity of CuO–NWAs/Cu–foam electrode towards non–enzymatic electrochemical histamine determination presented as high as 12.94 mA mM −1 cm −2 , linear range spanned between 0.5 and 1046 μM, a detection limit (S/N = 3) was about 44 nM. The unprecedented causes of ultrahigh sensitivity were physically contributed to enhancing active surface area and declining charge transfer resistance. More crucially, the outstanding selectivity, stability and reproducibility facilitated its practical capacity on evaluating histamine levels in different–bacteria fermented mandarin fish, which triggered the potential feasibility for commercializing non–enzymatic electrochemical determination of histamine with high sensitivity, reliable precision and low expenditure.

Ultrathin organic nanofibers (UTONFs) have favorable potential as emerging nanomaterials due to their large aspect ratio, lightweight nature, and mechanical flexibility. Achieving dual stimuli-responsive UTONFs is necessary to satisfy the on-demand requirements of smart and miniature devices but remains challenging. Herein, amphiphilic alternating peptoids (AAPs) modified with azobenzene and histamine groups were successfully synthesized using the solid-phase submonomer synthesis technique. Following subsequent solution self-assembly, photo/CO2 dual-responsive ultrathin peptoid nanofibers (UTPNFs) with a diameter of ∼1.8 nm and a length of up to several micrometers were generated based on the pendant hydrophobic conjugate stacking mechanism. The photoisomerization of azobenzene was accountable for the reversible transformation from UTPNFs to spherical micelles (∼60 nm) under recyclable light irradiation. Owing to the protonation and the resulting electrostatic repulsion interaction, both UTPNFs and spherical micelles displayed a reversible variation in shape and physicochemical properties, including the size, diameter, zeta potential, and pH. Our work offers prospective guidance on the construction of dual-responsive ultrathin organic nanofibers with controllable shape transformation and performance transition.

Food poisoning caused by histamine ingestion is one of the prevalent allergies associated with fish consumption in the world. Reliable detection of histamine from fish by a portable platform was of urgent importance to food safety. A portable technology for on-site monitoring of histamine in tuna was established through combined azo-derivatized thin-layer chromatography (TLC) with surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) spectroscopy. The real tuna meat sample was directly applied onto the portable sensor for the separation of histamine and azo-derivatizing of histamine was reacted on the TLC plate. The colorless histamine was visualized by azo-derivatization after spraying Pauly reagent onto the diatomite TLC plate. The molecule information and concentration of the histamine was measured and calculated by SERS spectra. Diatomite TLC plate was capable of separating histamine with 1.32 × 10 −7 M of Au colloid for the SERS enhancement. Accordingly, the limit of detection of histamine from mixture sample could achieve 2.8 × 10 −4 ppm. These results indicated that the portable azo-derivatized TLC-SERS sensor not only visualizes the histamine but also improves the intensity of the Raman spectra. The azo-derivatized TLC-SERS sensor could be applied for rapid, convenient, and ultrasensitive point-of-care sensing of histamine in fish.

Histamine is an organic nitrogen-containing compound produced by the decarboxylation of histidine and is toxic in high intakes. Therefore, Histamine detection is an important work for food safety. In the present study, a rapid detection method for histamine in fish was established based on the fluorescence activity of graphite phase carbon nitride (g-C 3 N 4 ). After calcinating the mixture of melamine , potassium chloride , and sodium chloride, g-C 3 N 4 was obtained with strong fluorescence and good dispersity in solutions. The strong blue fluorescence of g-C 3 N 4 at 420 nm was fairly selectively quenched by histamine with linear range from 5 μmol L −1 to 800 μmol L −1 , and the detection limit was 0.61 mg kg −1 (3σ/K, n = 9). The fluorescent method was applied to histamine detection in different kinds of fish, and the data were validated by the method of high-performance liquid chromatography. The results indicated that the established fluorescent method was suitable for the rapid detection of histamine in fish with high accuracy, sensitivity, and stability.
