During meat storage, many physicochemical changes take place, also affecting the content of biologically active substances, including biogenic amines.They are formed as a result of three processes: decarboxylation of amino acids by microorganisms, reductive amination, and transamination of aldehydes and ketones, and as a result of activity of body tissues. Excessive consumption of biogenic amines shows toxic properties. The increasing consumption of poultry meat and the lack of established limits for biogenic amine content is a major challenge for scientists, producers, and consumer organisations, which have not yet established limits for biogenic amine content in meat (including poultry meat). Analyses of biogenic amine content in meat account for less than 10% of scientific papers, which raises the scope of the problem of limiting biogenic amines in meat. Among the methods of amine reduction are methods of destroying or reducing microorganisms\u2019 high hydrostatic pressure (HHP), ozonisation, radiation, or the use of essential oils.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ani12121577","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,6,18]],"date-time":"2022-06-18T09:51:11Z","timestamp":1655545871000},"page":"1577","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":37,"title":["Biogenic Amines in Poultry Meat and Poultry Products: Formation, Appearance, and Methods of Reduction"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"12","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8066-9924","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Wojciech","family":"W\u00f3jcik","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Animal Science, Warsaw University of Life Sciences, 02-786 Warsaw, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7087-6302","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Monika","family":"\u0141ukasiewicz-Mierzejewska","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Animal Science, Warsaw University of Life Sciences, 02-786 Warsaw, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Krzysztof","family":"Damaziak","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Animal Science, Warsaw University of Life Sciences, 02-786 Warsaw, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7236-0203","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Damian","family":"Bie\u0144","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Animal Science, Warsaw University of Life Sciences, 02-786 Warsaw, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,6,18]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Ahmad, R.S., Imran, A., and Hussain, M.B.
