Isolation of Kombucha Microorganisms for Application in Perilla Beverage Fermentation. [PDF]
Five commercial kombucha samples from Vietnam were screened, yielding 37 isolates (22 AAB, 6 LAB, 9 yeasts). Three representative strains—Komagataeibacter saccharivorans, Levilactobacillus brevis, and Wickerhamomyces anomalus—were identified and combined into a defined starter consortium (yeast: AAB: LAB = 2:2:1).
