Implication

Randomized trial investigates ultrasound fermentation effects on phytochemicals in citrus, suggesting enhanced benefits.

Key Points

This study aims to understand how ultrasound-assisted fermentation affects the phytochemical transformation and antioxidant activity of Citrus aurantium.
Investigated the effect of ultrasound-assisted fermentation at varying power levels (100 W) during different fermentation stages.
Compared microbial growth and metabolic profiles of Citrus aurantium fermented by L. plantarum and ultrasound treatment.
Conducted untargeted full-MS/MS metabolomic analysis to identify metabolic changes.
Ultrasound treatment during the exponential growth phase (ULP4) significantly promoted microbial growth compared to conventional fermentation.
Notable improvements in total phenolic content and antioxidant capacities were observed with ULP4 versus conventional L. plantarum fermentation.
335 metabolites significantly altered with ultrasound treatment, indicating enhanced metabolic and phytochemical transformation.
