Abstract: The aim of the study was the nutritional quality and to identify the biogenic amine forming bacteria in marine edible species Sardinella longiceps and Loligo duvauceli Tuticorin, Southeast coast of India. Physico chemical and biochemical analysis were carried out in both the collected samples. Results revealed that the species Sardinella longiceps has the high pH, protein, and carbohydrate, lipid and Ash value. Loligo duvauceli has the high moisture and ash content. The sample of the species has the high pH, protein, and carbohydrate value is high. Biogenic amine forming bacterias isolated from the collected samples of were Sardinella longiceps and Loligo duvauceli E.coli, Klebsiella pneumonia, Staphylococcus aureus, Proteus mirabilis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Salmonella species, Enterobacter aerogens and Shigella dysentria. Both the samples showed the presence of biogenic amine forming bacteria. The study clearly shows that the spoilage occurs due to the duration, from the time of capturing, sometimes it takes more than two days to reach the landing centre/market from the day one of the captative process. These are the major reasons which cause the contamination in the species.
