Biodegradability and environmentally friendly technologies recently came into prominence; this is the reason why we assayed to develop a new “green” technology for L-lactic-acid (LLA) production. Racemic lactic acid (rLA) mixture produced by chemical industry is difficult to handle. The product of e...
