    Hi group!
    I´d like to know, what do you think about the TVN or TVBN like freshness
    control specially for canned and frozen process, and about your experience
    in the relationship between TVN and histamine in fishmeal, in some cases we
    had gotten fishmeal samples with the same TVN 100-120 mg/100gr but with
    histamine in wider range of variation, although samples were from the same
    specie; we know there are species with less histidine, and find TVN high
    and histamine low.
    I believe the TVN should be use only like indicator between others, and not
    take this value to determinate fishmeal quality, probably the final use
    could be the justification.
    Finally maybe someone has information how was determinated TVN =120 mg/100gr
    like limit in prime fishmeal.
    Thanks for help me.

    María León
