Visual detection of biogenic monoamines based on amine oxidase-peroxidase coupling reaction using ascorbic acid as H₂O₂ scavenger

초록

This study represents a visual detection for total biogenic monoamines with naked eye as a simple and rapid semi-quantitative method for biogenic amine monitoring. The equivalent reaction of H2O2 with ascorbic acid resulted in color development by an amine oxidase-peroxidase coupling reaction in the samples containing the biogenic monoamines higher than the subjected ascorbic acid by 10 mu M. Upon employing the commercial doenjang extracts as a model food, an additional heating step was requested, and the expected ranges for the biogenic monoamines from 360 to 480 mu M covered the real contents of the samples (360.2-407.3 mu M). Therefore, this visual detection method makes it possible to decide with naked eye whether the sample contains the biogenic monoamines higher than the ascorbic acid supplemented as much as a control level on manufacturing sites without instrumental analysis.
