The lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are commonly used as starter cultures. This study screened LAB for orange juice fermentation and optimized fermentation factors using response surface methodology (RSM) to improve GABA content in orange juice. A total of 52 LAB strains were screened, and Lacticaseibacillus paracasei ZY (Lcb. paracasei ZY) and Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus SN12 (Lcb. rhamnosus SN12) presented higher GABA yields and adaptability to substrates. The optimized fermentation factors for GABA enhancement in orange juice were as follows: initial pH of 5.5, fermentation temperature of 37 ◦ C, soluble solids content of  \n12.0 ◦ Bx, inoculum ratio of Lcb. paracasei ZY to Lcb. rhamnosus SN12 as 1:1, inoculum size of  \n6 Log CFU/mL, and fermentation time of 96 h. Under these optimized conditions, the GABA content reached 0.89 g/L, representing a 39.06% increase compared to uninoculated orange juice. This indicates that RSM-based optimization is conducive to increasing GABA content in orange juice and provides a scientific basis for the development of GABAenriched functional fermented juices.  \nKeywords: γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA); orange juice; Lacticaseibacillus paracasei; Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus; single-factor experiment; response surface methodology (RSM); functional beverage  \n1.

As a major inhibitory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system, GABA has multiple physiological functions, including improving sleep [1], alleviating anxiety [2], lowering blood pressure [3], and regulating blood sugar [4] . Compared with chemical synthesis and plant extraction methods, microbial fermentation is safer and more sustainable for GABA production [5] . Lactic acid bacteria (LAB), as generally recognized as safe (GRAS) probiotics, can irreversibly decarboxylate glutamic acid or monosodium glutamate (MSG) to convert GABA through glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD) . In recent years, they have received increasing attention in the food industry [6] . The reported species  \nof GABA-producing LAB include Levilactobacillus brevis (L. brevis) [7], Lactiplantibacillus plantarum (Lpb. plantarum) [8], Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus (Lcb. rhamnosus) [9], Lacticaseibacillus paracasei (Lcb. paracasei) [10], and Limosilactobacillus fermentum (Lim. fermentum) [11] .  \nOranges are rich in nutrients, containing carbohydrates, vitamin C, and polyphenols [12] .
