Effects of Inoculation With Acinetobacter on Fermentation of Cigar Tobacco Leaves

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Metabolic activity of the microbial community greatly affects the quality of cigar tobacco leaves (CTLs). To improve the quality of CTLs, two extrinsic microbes (Acinetobacter sp. 1H8 and Acinetobacter indicus 3B2) were inoculated into CTLs.
