The mean value ± standard deviations of quadruplet analysis are given. LAB: lactic acid bacteria, CFU: colony-forming unit. A–B: Different uppercase letter in same column indicates effect of fermentation type at same temperature, a–b: different lowercase letter in same column indicates effect of temperature for same fermentation types (p < 0.05).
