Production on a large-scale of fermented alcoholic drinks made from different kinds of fruits is carried out in homes. Although wine laws regulating home production exist, they do not include upper concentration limits of biogenic amines. Therefore, a quick and inexpensive way to determine BAs in wine is crucial. A new analytical method based on micellar electrokinetic chromatography has been developed for the separation of the four most frequently occurring biogenic amines (histamine, tryptamine, tyramine and 2-phenylethylamine). An electrophoresis buffer of 20 mM borate (pH 9.3) containing 30 mM SDS and 5% (v/v) methanol was found to provide the optimum separation with respect to resolution and migration time. Finally this method was applied to the determination of biogenic amines in home-made red wines.
