A study was carried out to determine the effect of vacuum packed (VP) and modified atmosphere (MAP) (100% CO2) packing, chitosan film and cling film (CF) wrapping on the formation of biogenic amines and trimethylamine (TMA) during storage of Atlantic bonito (Sarda sarda) fillets at 4 degrees C. The biogenic amine contents generally increased in all treatments with increasing storage period. Significant differences were found (p < 0.01) in the levels of cadaverine, tyramine and histamine among the four treatments but it was not detected significant difference for putrescine, phenylethylamine and tryptamine in this level. Spermidine and spermine did not detect throughout the storage period for all experimental conditions. The amine contents of Atlantic bonito were highest in stored in cling film, followed by VP, MAP and chitosan film.
