| Sample preparation | Fish meal: Suspend 1g of fish meal in 200ml of distilled water and stir for 15 minutes. Pipette 1ml of the suspension and centrifuge for 5 minutes at maximum speed. Take 20µl of the supernatant and dilute with 20ml of distilled water. Use 100µl for acylation. Fresh fish, sausage, cheese: Homogenize 10g of sample in 90 ml of distilled water for 1 – 2 minutes using a food mincer. Pipette 1ml of the suspension and centrifuge for 5 minutes at maximum speed. Remove lipid layer by suction. Take 20µl of the supernatant and dilute with 10ml of distilled water. Use 100µl for acylation. Milk: Pipette 10µl of milk into a centrifugation tube and add 50µl of precipitator. Vortex mix, incubate for 5 minutes and add 2ml of 0.1 N hydrochloric acid (HCl). Centrifuge for 5 minutes at 3,000 x g and remove the lipid layer by suction. Use 100µl for acylation. Wine: Dilute 20µl with 10ml of distilled water. Use 100µl for acylation. |
| Sample acylation | Pipette 100µL of standards, controls and extracts. Add 25µL of Acylation Reagent to all wells and pipette 200µL of Acylation Buffer into all wells. Incubate 15 minutes at room temperature. |
| ELISA | Histamine antiserum incubation (30 min), revelation and read steps (30min). |
