Starter cultures are large amounts of microbial cells
added into raw materials to produce fermented food (Leroy
and De Vuyst, 2004). Using starter cultures in food fermentation
resulted in an increased rate of fermentation and
improved stability of the products (Visessanguan et al.,
2006). Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) have been used as starter
cultures in various fermented food such as fermented dairies
and fermented meat products
