  • Title: The role of histamine and fish meal in the incidence of gizzard erosion and pro-ventricular abnormalities in the fowl.
    Author: Tucker JF, Harry EG, Laursen-Jones AP.
    Journal: Br Poult Sci; 1975 Jan; 16(1):69-78. PubMed ID: 1111853.
    Abstract:
    The role of certain fish meals in the production of localised gizzard erosion is confirmed. Lesions typical of gizzard erosion could be produced by the addition of histamine to the diet. The amount of histamine occurring naturally in fish meal depends on the species of fish and the extent and nature of bacterial spoilage. These variables may explain why histamine has not been implicated previously and also why there have not been consistent associations between the condition and geographical source or common factors in bulk consignments of the meal.
