Fishes that contain additives like Vitamin C or antioxidant, it may affect the enzyme reaction and create a false positive. To prevent false positive, add heating process or dilute test sample with 4% Acetic Acid instead of water. If in doubt of false negative, do a recovery test. A recovery test is adding histamine on sample and see whether it shows positive results.
