This research aims to investigate the effects of Staphylococcus xylosus YCC3 (Sx YCC3) and Lactobacillus plantarum MSZ2 (Lp MSZ2) on lipid hydrolysis and oxidation, the bacterial community&rsquo:s composition, and the volatile flavor compounds in fermented sausage. The bacterial community was examined by plate counting and high-throughput sequencing. Differential flavor compounds in non-inoculated and inoculated sausages were identified by principal component analysis (PCA) and orthogonal partial least squares discrimination analysis (OPLS-DA). The results showed that the free fatty acid (FFA) content was increased after inoculating with Sx YCC3 or Lp MSZ2. The pH, peroxide value (POV), thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) value, lipoxygenase activity, and the counts of Enterobacteriaceae were lower in the inoculated sausage than in the non-inoculated sausage. The bacterial inoculation enhanced the competitiveness of Staphylococcus and Lactobacillus and restricted the growth of unwanted bacteria. The OPLS-DA revealed that (Z)-hept-2-enal, (E)-2-octenal, 1-nonanal, octanal, and 1-octen-3-ol were common differential flavor compounds that were found in the inoculated sausages but were not found in the non-inoculated sausages. A positive correlation was observed between the differential flavor compounds and the relative abundance of Staphylococcus or Lactobacillus, or the FFA content. Our results indicated that inoculation with Sx YCC3 or Lp MSZ2 can improve fermented sausages&rsquo: flavor by enhancing their bacterial quality and increasing their FFA content.
