We assessed the bacterial diversity in five Alaska pollock surimi samples using 16S rRNA sequencing to plan the pre-processing of fermenting surimi. The viable bacterial count of the surimi samples was approximately 104–105 cfu/g. Phylogenetic tree analysis revealed that the surimi bacterial profile was dominated by phylum Pseudomonadota, with the dominant genera being Pseudomonas and Psychrobacter. Only one strain of spore-producing bacteria was isolated from the five surimi samples. These results suggest that pasteurization before inoculation of bacterial starters was necessary for stable and hygienic fermentation of Alaska pollock surimi.
