This study was performed to identify the effect of lactic-fermentation of peanut milk on n-hexanal content. Changes in viable cell populations, pH and titratable acidity indicated that there was a synergistic interaction between Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus and Streptococcus salivarius subsp. thermophilus during fermentation. The analysis of headspace volatiles revealed that n-hexanal nearly disappeared due to fermentation. S. salivarius subsp. thermophilus was more effective than L. delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus in reducing the n-hexanal content.
