There was no isolation of fungi throughout the fermentation period. The biochemical changes and enzymatic activities in fermenting okpehe mash were investigated. Reducing sugars increased from 2.0 mg g to 11.6 mg g -1 -1 during the first 2 days of fermentation but subsequently decreased to 7.8 mg g at day 6 while total soluble -1 sugars decreased from 13.4 mg g at day 1 to 5.8 mg g at day 6. The most significant biochemical activity -1 -1 during the fermentation was the rapid and steady increase in the quantity of free amino acids throughout the fermentation period from 43.7 mg g - 70.0 mg g . Proteinase activities increased from 0.51 – 0.71 U ml . -1 -1 -1 "-amylase activities were not consistent but had their peaks at days 1 and 3, while lipase activities were maximal at days 3 and 5 of fermentation. The role of each associated bacteria in the fermenting okpehe indicated B. licheniformis, B. megaterium and Bacillus subtilis as the most active bacteria involved in the controlled fermentation without masking the fermented cotyledons after 3-6 months storage, but smoking s post fermentation treatment changed the colour of the condiment from dark brown to black.
