This study analyzed biogenic amine (BA) content in three varieties (types) of kimchi (Baechu kimchi, Baek kimchi, and Yeolmu kimchi), identified the causative bacteria, and evaluated the gene expression associated with the BA formation during kimchi fermentation at 4℃. Histamine content exceeding the toxicity limit was detected in a single Baechu kimchi product. Tyramine content in most Baechu kimchi products was approximately half of the toxicity limit. Other varieties had relatively lower BA content. Most BA producers isolated from all kimchi varieties were identified as Levilactobacillus brevis, which prominently produced tyramine. To clarify the role of L. brevis in tyramine formation in Baechu kimchi, fermentation experiments were performed using L. brevis BC1M20. The results showed that tyramine content and tyrosine decarboxylase gene (tdc) expression were higher in the inoculated kimchi than in the control. In addition, in the inoculated kimchi, the content decreased while the expression level was almost constant.
