Abstract
The present report studies the relationship between the number and the activity of trimethylamineoxide (TMAO) reducing psychrotolerant (psychrotrophic) bacteria. The organisms were isolated by swabbing the skin slimes of fresh fish. A limited number of viable cells (7.5 to 8.0 in log count) were required to produce 16.2 μg, an arbitrary amount, of trimethylamine nitrogen (TMA-N) per ml of cultured medium containing 0.05% TMAO. In general, the initial cell count and the incubation temperature had no influence on these results.
