Production of optically pure lactic acid by microbial fermentation: a review

Salma Aathika Abdur Rawoof et al.

Summary: The biotransformation of organic wastes into high value-added products, particularly in the production of lactic acid, has gained significant attention. However, challenges such as achieving enhanced yield and productivity in large-scale fermentation still exist. Various solutions have been proposed, including the use of cheap substrates, improving yield and productivity, and eliminating inhibitors.

Salinity enhances high optically active L-lactate production from co-fermentation of food waste and waste activated sludge: Unveiling the response of microbial community shift and functional profiling

Xiang Li et al.

Summary: This study proposed an efficient approach using salt as an additive to increase lactic acid (LA) production, with optical pure L-lactate obtained at 30 g NaCl/L. High salinity conditions altered the common conversion of LA to volatile fatty acids, and selectively enriched key LA bacteria genera under saline conditions. Strong correlations between salinity and functional genes for L-LA production were observed.
