Abstract
Nongxiangxing baijiu (NXXB) is one of the main types of Chinese Baijiu. Its unique flavor is formed during fermentation by the combined action of various microorganisms, with lactic acid bacteria (LAB) making a great contribution. Lactate fermentation produces the precursors of key flavor compounds, such as lactic acid, acetic acid, and other flavor compounds, which combine to produce the unique sensory characteristics of NXXB. This review focuses on the diversity of LAB species and their physiological and metabolic characteristics. These characteristics include key species involved at different fermentation stages, metabolite biosynthesis, acid-tolerance mechanisms, interactions with yeasts, and factors influencing LAB community composition. It also discusses current challenges and future research directions for LAB in relation to NXXB production, aiming to advance understanding and potential future applications of these bacteria.
期刊介绍:
The goal of the Journal of Food Science is to offer scientists, researchers, and other food professionals the opportunity to share knowledge of scientific advancements in the myriad disciplines affecting their work, through a respected peer-reviewed publication. The Journal of Food Science serves as an international forum for vital research and developments in food science.
The range of topics covered in the journal include:
-Concise Reviews and Hypotheses in Food Science
-New Horizons in Food Research
-Integrated Food Science
-Food Chemistry
-Food Engineering, Materials Science, and Nanotechnology
-Food Microbiology and Safety
-Sensory and Consumer Sciences
-Health, Nutrition, and Food
-Toxicology and Chemical Food Safety
The Journal of Food Science publishes peer-reviewed articles that cover all aspects of food science, including safety and nutrition. Reviews should be 15 to 50 typewritten pages (including tables, figures, and references), should provide in-depth coverage of a narrowly defined topic, and should embody careful evaluation (weaknesses, strengths, explanation of discrepancies in results among similar studies) of all pertinent studies, so that insightful interpretations and conclusions can be presented. Hypothesis papers are especially appropriate in pioneering areas of research or important areas that are afflicted by scientific controversy.
