Production of L-lactic acid by Rhizopus species.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Of 19 Rhizopus spp. only four produced L-lactic acid in shake-flask culture. Aerobically and in the presence of a neutralizing agent, Rhizopus oryzae NRRL 395 produced the highest concentration of L-lactic acid (65 g/l) but with O2-limited growth ethanol was produced instead.

Comparison of Lactic Acid Isomers Produced by Fungal and Bacterial Strains
Many organisms produce lactic acid by fermentation, but most industrially important strains are from the genus Lactobacillus and Rhizopus oryzae. L(+)-Lactic acid is the only optical isomer for use in pharmaceutical and food industries because human body is only adapted to assimilate this form. In this research, six strains of Lactobacillus and four strains of R. oryzae (known as high producer)...
متن کاملProduction of L-Lactic acid from starch and food waste by amylolytic Rhizopus oryzae MTCC 8784
Lactic acid, commonly used in food, chemical and pharmaceutical industries, has recently received much attention for the production of biodegradable plastics. In this study, Rhizopus oryzae MTCC 8784 was used to convert starch into optically pure L-Lactic acid. Effect of time, pH, addition of calcium carbonate and starch concentration were analyzed using shaker flasks in order optimize the L-la...
متن کاملBiotechnological production of lactic acid integrated with fishmeal wastewater treatment by Rhizopus oryzae.
Fishmeal wastewater, a seafood processing waste, was utilized for production of lactic acid and fungal biomass by Rhizopus oryzae AS 3.254 with the addition of sugars. The 30 g/l exogenous glucose in fishmeal wastewater was superior to starch in view of productivities of lactic acid and fungal biomass, and COD reduction. Fishmeal wastewater can be a replacement for peptone which was the most su...

L(+)-LACTIC ACID is a commonly occurring organic acid. It is widely used in the food and food-related industries, and has the potential to be used for the production of biodegradable polymers, solvents and oxygenated chemicals. Lactic acid can be produced by both bacteria and fungi, however it is currently produced from sugar-containing materials by bacteria such as Lactobacillus and Lactococcu...
