The pure culture fermentation has led to less flavorful rice wine and relatively lower bioactive substance level compared to traditional mixed culture fermentation; however, a pure strain is easily controlled by industrialized producers. The purpose of the present research was to screen a species of Rhizopus for improving the flavor deficiency and antioxidant function of sweet rice wine. Seven rice wine samples fermented with isolated strains were analyzed for their total phenolics, total flavonoids, peptide and antioxidant activity using spect...
