    Dear Colleagues:

    Our laboratory at North Carolina State University is seeking other
    research groups with interest in collaborating on histamine producing
    bacteria associated with fresh fish. We are developing a new molecular
    method for isolation and quantification of histamine producing bacteria
    in fish. Our primary need is to expand our library of bacterial isolates
    in order to test and validate our new method. We are particularly
    interested in bacteria isolates associated with fresh yellowfin tuna
    (/Coryphaena hippurus/) and mahi-mahi (/Thunnus albacares/) from the
    genera Morganella, Raoutella, Enterobacter, Hafnia and Photobacterium.
    If your research group is interested in collaborating with us on this
    area of research, please contact us directly at (252) 222-6304 or
    dpg@ncsu.edu <mailto:dpg@ncsu.edu>. Thanks for your kind response.

    David Green
