Various microorganisms involved during the fermentation process have proven to play active role in the enhancement of the nutritional value as well as increase in phytochemicals in the product. <em>Akhuni/Axone</em> is a popular soybean product of Nagaland, India. It forms an integral part of the diet and is used as a condiment during preparation of various dishes in the Naga kitchen.  This study describes the nutritional value, the antioxidant activity and the presence of polyphenols of <em>Akhuni/Axone, </em>which increase significantly in composition between the soybean seeds and the fermented product. The molecular identification of the microorganisms present in <em>Akhuni/Axone</em> product is also reported in this paper.</p>}, journal={JOURNAL OF ADVANCES IN BIOLOGY}, author={Deb, Chitta Ranjan and Jamir, Bendangnaro}, year={2018}, month={Mar.}, pages={2170–2179} }
