Reduction of biogenic amine formation using a negative amino acid-decarboxylase starter culture for fermentation of Fuet sausages.
TL;DR: Both starters were able to significantly limit the production of putrescine and cadaverine, and they inhibited tryptamine and phenylethylamine formation by the wild microbial flora.
Journal ArticleDOI
Technological and sensorial evaluation of Lactobacillus strains as starter cultures in fermented sausages
