Mitschhia pastoris strain with amine-reducing and aroma-enhancing capabilities and application of Mitschhia pastoris strain
By screening Maggi Mickey Yeast Y21, the problem of biogenic amine accumulation in Pixian Doubanjiang (fermented broad bean paste) was solved. It effectively degrades various biogenic amines and enhances flavor under reduced salt conditions, making it suitable for the safe production of fermented foods such as Doubanjiang.

AI Technical Summary
In fermented foods such as Pixian Doubanjiang (Pixian chili bean paste), there is a high risk of biogenic amine accumulation, which is particularly difficult to control under reduced-salt fermentation conditions. Existing technologies are unable to effectively degrade biogenic amines while maintaining flavor characteristics, posing a food safety risk.
A strain of Maggi Mickey yeast Y21 was selected, which can significantly degrade a variety of biogenic amines and increase the content of volatile flavor compounds under medium and low salt conditions, making it suitable for the production of low-salt fermented foods.
Maggi Yeast Y21 significantly degrades biogenic amines, especially histamine, tyramine, and polyamines, in fermented soybean paste, with a degradation rate of 69.58% to 86.96%. At the same time, it enhances flavor complexity and sensory quality, making it suitable for the safe production of low-sodium fermented foods.
