Microorganisms Involved In The Fermentation Of African Oil Bean Seed For Ugba Production
ABSTRACT
The
microorganisms involved in the fermentation of African oilbean seeds for Ugba
production were investigated. This investigation revealed the presence of Bacillus, Staphylococcus, Micrococcus,
Escherichia coli, Klebsiella and
Proteus. It was obvious that no
other microorganisms outside bacteria was involved in this fermentation Bacillus spp were seen to be the
persistent bacteria throughout the fermentation period. The number of
microorganisms increased from day 1 to day 3 and decreased from day 4 till the
end of fermentation. Bacillus spp had
the highest percentage occurrence while Micrococcus
spp had the lowest. There was no presence of fungi. The study can be a key,
leading to the development of starter culture for Ugba production.
