Volatile components in Douchi produced by natural fermentation and pure Aspergillus oryzae fermentation were analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). A total of 51 volatile compounds were identified from two kinds of fermented Douchi samples. Among 51 volatile compounds, 11 classes of compounds were identified, which included esters, pyrazines, ketones, alcohols, alkane, olefin, acids, furans and aldehydes. The volatile components with high contents in pure fermented Douchin by Aspergillus oryzae were esters (58.53%), acids...
