Fermentation of medicinal plant materials: Typical styles, precise controls, and new opportunities for phytomedicine development
• Typical styles and precise controls of MPMs-related fermentation are explored in this article. • Typical styles present known types and microbial isolates of MPMs-related fermentation. • Precise controls rely on strain combinations, synthesis biology, and fermentation equipment. • Synthetic biology promotes microbial synthesis of MPMs-related active ingredients. • 3D printing, digital, AI, and multi-omic techniques support precise fermentation controls.
