What “histamine fermentation” patent results does Google Patents typically show?
People usually search Google Patents for terms tied to histamine formation (often linked to fermentation and food spoilage), such as “histamine,” “histamine formation,” “histamine-producing,” “decarboxylase,” “histidine decarboxylase,” “biogenic amine,” and “fermentation.” On Google Patents, queries like these generally surface patents covering either:
- How to detect or measure histamine in fermented foods, or
- How to prevent histamine accumulation during fermentation (through process controls, strains, or additives), or
- Engineering/modifying microbes to reduce or control biogenic amine production.
How to search Google Patents effectively for this topic
If you want Google Patents results specifically tied to “histamine” and fermentation, try searches like:
- histamine fermentation
- histamine-forming fermentation
- biogenic amine histamine decarboxylase
- histidine decarboxylase fermented
- reduce histamine fermented food
- histamine test assay fermentation
Then use Google Patents filters such as:
- Publication date (to find newer vs older methods),
- International Patent Classification (IPC/CPC) if you know it (often biochemistry/food),
- Jurisdiction (US, EP, WO, etc.),
- Assignee/inventor names once you see recurring players.
What does it mean if you see a “US patent” among Google Patents results?
Google Patents indexes patent publications globally, including US filings (published US applications and granted US patents). A result labeled “US” can be:
- A published US application (often has a publication number like US20xx…),
- Or a granted US patent (US… with a patent number).
The exact legal status (application vs granted) is visible on the individual record page.
If you meant “histamine fermentation” as a biotech process (not food spoilage)
Sometimes “histamine fermentation” is used loosely by searchers, even when the actual patents focus on histidine decarboxylase activity, biogenic amines, or microbial control during fermentation. The key is whether the claims target:
- Food safety (preventing histamine in fermented foods), or
- Industrial biotech production/bioprocessing (histamine as a product or intermediate), or
- Detection/quantification (assays, biosensors).
Different search keywords will pull up different clusters of patents.
Can you share the exact patent you’re looking for?
“Google patents histamine fermentation us patent” could match many different patents. If you paste either:
- the Google Patents link, or
- the US patent/application number (e.g., “US 20xx…”, “US …”), or
- the inventors/assignee name you saw,
I can help you identify what the patent claims, who filed it, and what the core technology is.
