The effect of Levilactobacillus brevis as a starter in northeastern sauerkraut fermentation is still unknown, and further evaluation is worthwhile. Hence, this study aimed to evaluate the effect of autochthonous L. brevis inoculation on the bacterial community succession and formation of flavor and harmful substances in sauerkrauts. Inoculation with L. brevis lowered the pH and increased the total acid content of sauerkrauts (P < 0.05). The nitrite content of the inoculated sauerkraut was significantly lower than that of control (P < 0.05). Moreover, the spoilage bacteria of the inoculated sauerkraut were decreased and nitrogen metabolism was improved. The contents of aldehydes, alcohols, esters, acids, and alkanes increased significantly (P < 0.05), and the sensory attributes such as aroma, sourness, and gloss were also improved. L. brevis was positively and negatively correlated with flavor metabolites and nitrite, respectively, which proved to be a potential starter culture to manufacture sauerkraut.
