Isolation of biogenic amine-negative lactic acid bacteria for Chinese rice wine fermentation based on molecular marker reverse screening.

To our knowledge, this is the first report of decreased accumulation of BAs in CRW production using a BA-negative lactic acid bacterium. Hence, using a BA-negative lactic acid bacterium as a starter culture could be an efficient strategy for significantly reducing the formation of BAs, which has the potential for industrial application in CRW production. © 2020 Society of Chemical Industry.
