Abstract:

Objective: To study Yunnan traditionally fermented Douchi and to identify kinds of bacteria in it. Methods: The bacteria were isolated from Douchi by the dilution method, and 130 strains of bacteria were randomly selected and identified by the molecular methods. Results: 130 strains isolated belonged to 3 genera and 5 species, including 3 species of the genus Bacillus, 1 species of the genus Staphylococcus, and 1 species of the genus Enterobacter. Bacillus subtilis accounting for 79.23% was the dominant species of all the bacteria from Yunnan traditionally fermented Douchi. Conclusion: Bacillus subtilis was expected as the main strain for Yunnan Douchi to be purely fermented.

Key words: Yunnan traditionally fermented Douchi, bacteria, molecular identification
