The product was found to contain histamine (biogenic amine) in an amount that can no longer be considered safe.
Histamine in fish is produced as a result of microbial contamination, a breach of the cooling chain is also a risk factor. Higher histamine content can cause itchy skin and rash, headache or drop in blood pressure.

Three students and a teacher at Sacred Heart Mukumu Girls in Kakamega died as a result of contaminated water.
The Ministry of Health Friday said preliminary findings had revealed E. coli and Salmonella typhi, a bacterium that is responsible for typhoid fever as the causes of the illness initially suspected to be cholera.
“The Ministry wishes to inform the general public that this disease is likely to be a mixture of E. coli and Salmonella typhi which usually occurs if water sources are contaminated with these micro-organisms” Ag. Director General for Health Dr. Patrick Amoth said.
A comprehensive investigation is however underway even as the top health official ruled out aflatoxin.
Several learning institutions including, Mukumu Girls and Butere Boys in Kamamega and the latest being Mukuuni Boys High School in Chuka, Tharaka Nithi County have been closed after students were taken ill.
“The Ministry of Health has taken several water, food, and human tissue samples, from which preliminary laboratory investigations undertaken have revealed Enterotoxigenic E. coli and Salmonella typhi as the causes of the illness,” he said
“Further laboratory investigations carried out on the grains and pulses for aflatoxin have turned negative for aflatoxicosis- a dangerous fungal infection from poorly stored cereal grains” he added.

The Nigeria Centre for Disease and Prevention Control (NCDC) has registered 79 deaths and a total of 1,336 suspected cases of cholera in the country so far in 2023.
The NCDC, via its official website, said this in its latest cholera situation epidemiological report.
Cholera is an acute diarrheal illness caused by infection of the intestine with Vibrio cholera bacteria.
People can get sick when they swallow food or water contaminated with cholera bacteria. The infection is often mild or without symptoms but can sometimes be severe and life-threatening.
The agency said 12 states across 43 local government areas reported the suspected cases, with a case fatality ratio of 5.9 per cent.
