The aim of this study was to determine the biogenic amines (BAs) formed in chicken breast meat packaged using different techniques (AP, Hi-O₂-MAP or VP) during the storage under different conditions (cold room or display case), to correlate the microbiological quality (TPC, LAB, Pseudomonas spp. and Enterobacteriaceae) of chicken meat with BAs formation and to assess the suitability of selected biogenic amines as indicators of chicken meat spoilage. The initial TPC of chicken fillets was 2.57–3.04 log cfu/g. Over time a systematic significant (p ≤ 0.05) increase in TPC was observed to >7.5 log cfu/g (AP and VP; display case) determined on day 9. It was found that cadaverine and tyramine dominated in quantitative terms in chicken fillets, regardless of packaging technique and storage conditions (166.00 mg/kg in AP meat in cold room on day 9 and 175.03 mg/kg on day 9 in MAP meat in display case, respectively). Taking into account the BAI, high and significant (p ≤ 0.05) correlation coefficients (from 0.51 to 0.95) were obtained with all analyzed indicators of microbiological quality. The concentration of cadaverine, putrescine contents or BAI can potentially serve as chemical quality indicator for freshness of chicken meat.
