Development of miniaturized tapered fiber optics diamine oxidase-based sensor for histamine detection

Estimating the level of histamine in fish and fish products is very important because of their implication in fish poisoning in human; hence, ascertaining histamine levels in the afore-mentioned serves as a chemical index for spoilage. Factors such as expensive instrumentation, time consumption, siz...
