<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title> <jats:p>The histamine level in tomato fruits and pastes was determined by 2 orthogonal techniques as a means of comparing accuracy. Close statistical agreement was found between assays for free histamine by capillary electrophoresis (with UV absorbance detection), and for the dansyl derivative by reversed-phase liquid chromatography (LC). Both techniques have adequate sensitivity for the analysis of endogenous histamine in tomatoes, but LC/electrospray tandem mass spectrometry was more sensitive by at least an order of magnitude, down to a level of 0.05 mg/kg.</jats:p>
