Abstract We investigated the effects of Lactobacillus pentosus inoculation on N-nitrosamines (NAs) contents and bacterial communities in dry fermented sausages. Culture-dependent and culture-independent (high-throughput sequencing) methods were employed to evaluate the bacterial communities. The results showed that inoculation with L. pentosus improved the microbiological quality of dry fermented sausages by enhancing the competitiveness of dominant bacteria and inhibiting the growth of undesirable microbes. At the end of ripening, NA content, nitrite residue, carbonyl content, total volatile basic nitrogen, pH value, and water activity of the sausages inoculated with L. pentosus were lower than the control (p
