Abstract: Several kinds of fermented foods would contain biogenic amines,the over absorption of which would have undesirable physiological effects on human beings.In winemaking biogenic amines could be produced during malolactic fermrntation(MLF)decarboxylated by lactic acid bacteria in wine.Histamine-producing strains could be detected by PCR test or DNA probe technology.In order to lower biogenic amine concentrtion in wine,inoculated MLFwas proposed,so as to effectively eliminate of lactic acid bacteria from wine after MLF.

Key words: Biogenic amines , Lactic acid bacteria , Malolactic fermentation , Wine
