Effect of nisin on biogenic amines and shelf life of vacuum packaged rainbow trout (

Nisin is a lantibiotic exhibiting antimicrobial activity against a wide range of Gram-positive bacteria, or some Gram-negative bacteria when used in combination with other preservative agents. The objective of the present work was to study the effect of nisin treatment on biogenic amines occurrence and shelf life of refrigerated (4 °C) vacuum packaged rainbow trout samples. For this purpose samples were divided in two batches: the experimental batch (CB-N), consisting of samples immersed in sterilized broth formulated with soy milk 1.4% (v/v) and whey powder 11.2% (w/v) dissolved in deionized water with addition of nisin (500 mg L
