Wines containing high levels of biogenic amines were investigated for the presence of tyramine-producing strains. Two different Lactobacillus brevis (IOEB 9809 and IOEB 9901) able to produce the amine were isolated. None of the isolated strains identified as Oenococcus oeni formed tyramine. In addition, other Lact. brevis and Lact. hilgardii strains from our collection (IOEB) and the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC) were strong tyramine producers. Lactobacillus brevis IOEB 9809 and Lact. hilgardii IOEB 9649 were found to produce tyramine and phenylethylamine simultaneously. The conditions that can influence tyramine formation in wine were evaluated for three strains of Lact. brevis (IOEB 9809 and IOEB 9901) and Lact. hilgardii (IOEB 9649). Tyrosine was the major factor affecting tyramine formation and was enhanced by the presence of sugars, mainly glucose. Tyrosine decarboxylase (TDC) activity greatly depended on the presence of the precursor, which suggested that tyrosine induced the TDC system. These results indicate that Lactobacillus could be the lactic acid bacteria responsible for tyramine production in wine.

The development of fast, reliable and culture-independent molecular tools to detect bacteria producing biogenic amines deserves the attention of research and ultimately of the food industry in order to protect consumers' health. Here we present the application of a simple, low-cost, fast and sensitive method to perform microdroplet-based multiplex PCR, directly on a food matrix, for the simultaneous detection of bacterial genes involved in biogenic amine biosynthesis. After inoculating wine with Lactobacillus brevis IOEB 9809, cell lysis and DNA amplification are performed in one single step, without preliminary nucleic acid extraction or purification treatments.

Background: Ingestion of fermented foods containing high levels of biogenic amines (BA) can be deleterious to human health. Less obvious is the threat posed by BA producing organisms contained within the food which, in principle, could form BA after ingestion even if the food product itself does not initially contain high BA levels. In this work we have investigated the production of tyramine and putrescine by Lactobacillus brevis IOEB 9809, of wine origin, under simulated gastrointestinal tract (GIT) conditions.

Aims: Lactobacillus brevis IOEB 9809 is able to produce both tyramine and putrescine via tyrosine decarboxylase and agmatine deiminase enzymes, respectively, when cultured on synthetic media. The aims of this study were to assess the expression of L. brevis IOEB 9809 tdc and aguA1 genes, during wine fermentation and to evaluate the effect of substrate availability and pH on tdc and aguA1 expression, as well as on biogenic amine production and L.

Bacterial genes of tyrosine decarboxylases were recently identified. Here we continued the sequencing of the tyrosine decarboxylase locus of Lactobacillus brevis IOEB 9809 and determined a total of 7979 bp. The sequence contained four complete genes encoding a tyrosyl-tRNA synthetase, the tyrosine decarboxylase, a probable tyrosine permease and a Na+/H+ antiporter.

Some lactic acid bacteria contain a tyrosine decarboxylase (TDC) which converts tyrosine to tyramine, a biogenic amine frequently encountered in fermented food and wine. Purification and microsequencing of the TDC of Lactobacillus brevis IOEB 9809 allowed us to determine a partial sequence of the TDC gene encoding 264 amino acids of the enzyme. Analysis of this protein sequence revealed typical features of pyridoxal phosphate-dependent amino acid decarboxylases while not any known decarboxylase was closely related to the TDC of L.
