Dynamic changes of volatile compounds and bacterial diversity during fourth to seventh rounds of Chinese soy sauce aroma liquor.

ABSTRACT: Chinese soy sauce aroma liquor (CSSL) is a famous Baijiu. Multiple rounds of fermentation, the characteristic of CSSL processing, contributes to the differences in the quality of the liquor of different rounds. In this study, the grains on cooled, stacked, and fermented stages of 4th to 7th rounds were taken, of which the environmental factors, bacterial diversity, and volatile compounds were comprehensively analyzed. Lactobacillaceae, Bacillaceae, Thermoactinomycetaceae, and Enterobacteriaceae were the top four families, of which Lactobacillaceae dominated the fermented stage of each round. Principal component analysis (PCA) and principal coordinate analysis (PCoA) supported the popular view that the liquors of 3rd to 5th rounds possess the best quality. Lactobacil
