Overview of microbials in traditional Chinese fermented soybean products: Origin, functionality and flavor profile
Abstract
The core reason for the nutritional richness and special flavour composition of traditional Chinese fermented soybean products lies in the diversity of microbial structures and their metabolites, which include a variety of potential probiotics. However, relatively little mainstream research has been conducted on these microorganisms, especially in regions with unrelated product dietary habits, limiting the high-value utilisation of the characteristic microbial resources. In order to enhance the efficient use and functional exploitation of microbial resources in Chinese traditional fermented soybean products, this paper investigated and reviewed a variety of products such as soybean paste, soy sauce, douchi, sufu, and fermented soybean milk, and carried out a detailed analysis of the sources, flavour characteristics, and potential functionality of microorganisms therein, which elucidated that the microorganisms in Chinese traditional fermented soybean products have the potential to be used as functional probiotics, with a view to contributing to the probiotic resources exploitation, novel food development, and the development of new food products, as well as the development of new foods.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
