摘要

Histamine is a biogenic amine formed through the decarboxylation of the amino acid. For the present study, a total of 126 histamine-producing bacteria (HPB) were screened from Muthupettai mangrove sediment sample. Among 126 isolates, S-96 were selected for 16s rRNA sequencing due to more histamine production. The sequencing study shows the S-96 belong to the genus of Bacillus cereus. This is probably the first report to designate Bacillus cereus as a histamine-producing bacterium in Muthupettai mangrove environment.
