Costa S, Summa D, Radice M, Vertuani S, Manfredini S, Tamburini E. Lactic acid production by Lactobacillus casei using a sequence of seasonally available fruit wastes as sustainable carbon sources. Front Bioeng Biotechnol 2024; 12:1447278. [PMID: 39157446 PMCID: PMC11327009 DOI: 10.3389/fbioe.2024.1447278] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/11/2024] [Accepted: 07/12/2024] [Indexed: 08/20/2024] Open
Abstract
Introduction: Lactic acid (LA) production from fossil resources is unsustainable owing to their depletion and environmental concerns. Thus, this study aimed to optimize the production of LA by Lactobacillus casei in a cultured medium containing fruit wastes (FWs) from agro-industries and second cheese whey (SCW) from dairy production, supplemented with maize steep liquor (MSL, 10% v/v) as the nitrogen source. Methods: The FWs were selected based on seasonal availability [early summer (early ripening peach), full summer (melon), late summer (pear), and early autumn (apple)] and SCW as annual waste. Small-scale preliminary tests as well as controlled fermenter experiments were performed to demonstrate the potential of using various food wastes as substrates for LA fermentation, except for apple pomace. Results and discussion: A 5-cycle repeated batch fermentation was conducted to optimize waste utilization and production, resulting in a total of 180.56 g/L of LA with a volumetric productivity of 0.88 g/L∙h. Subsequently, mechanical filtration and enzymatic hydrolysis were attempted. The total amount of LA produced in the 5-cycle repeated batch process was 397.1 g/L over 288 h, achieving a volumetric productivity of 1.32 g/L∙h. These findings suggest a promising biorefinery process for low-cost LA production from agri-food wastes.

Abstract
Pyruvic acid has numerous applications in the food, chemical, and pharmaceutical industries. The high costs of chemical synthesis have prevented the extensive use of pyruvate for many applications. Metabolic engineering and traditional strategies for mutation and selection have been applied to microorganisms to enhance their ability to produce pyruvate. In the past decades, different microbial strains were generated to enhance their pyruvate production capability. In addition to the development of genetic engineering and metabolic engineering in recent years, the metabolic transformation of wild-type yeast, E. coli, and so on to produce high-yielding pyruvate strains has become a hot spot. The strategy and the understanding of the central metabolism directly related to pyruvate production could provide valuable information for improvements in fermentation products. One of the goals of this review was to collect information regarding metabolically engineered strains and the microbial fermentation processes used to produce pyruvate in high yield and productivity.

Effects of feeding different probiotic types on metabolic, performance, and carcass responses of Bos indicus feedlot cattle offered a high-concentrate diet. J Anim Sci 2022; 100:skac289. [PMID: 36055763 PMCID: PMC9584148 DOI: 10.1093/jas/skac289] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/09/2022] [Accepted: 09/01/2022] [Indexed: 11/14/2022] Open
Abstract
Two experiments were designed to evaluate the effects of different probiotic combinations on rumen fermentation characteristics, performance, and carcass characteristics of feedlot Bos indicus beef bulls offered a high-concentrate diet. In experiment 1, 30 rumen-fistulated Nellore steers were blocked by initial body weight (BW = 350 ± 35.0 kg) and within blocks (n = 10), animals were randomly assigned to receive: 1) high-concentrate diet without probiotic supplementation (n = 10; CONT), 2) CONT plus 1 g per head of a probiotic mixture containing three strains of Enterococcus faecium and one strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae (3.5 × 109 CFU/g; n = 10; EFSC), and 3) CONT plus 2 g per head of a probiotic mixture containing Bacillus licheniformis and Bacillus subtilis (3.2 × 109 CFU/g; n = 10; BLBS). The experimental period lasted 35 d, being 28 d of adaptation and 7 d of sampling. From day 34 to day 35 of the experimental period, ruminal fluid and fecal samples were collected every 3 h, starting immediately before feeding (0 h) for rumen fermentation characteristics and apparent nutrient digestibility analysis, respectively. In experiment 2, 240 Nellore bulls were ranked by initial shrunk BW (375 ± 35.1 kg), assigned to pens (n = 4 bulls per pen), and pens randomly assigned to receive the same treatments as in experiment 1 (n = 20 pens per treatment). Regardless of treatment, all bulls received the same step-up and finishing diets throughout the experimental period, which lasted 115 d. In both experiments, data were analyzed as orthogonal contrasts to partition-specific treatment effects: 1) probiotic effect: CONT vs. PROB and 2) probiotic type: EFSC vs. BLBS (SAS Software Inc.). In experiment 1, no contrast effects were observed on nutrient intake, overall nutrient digestibility, and rumen fermentation analyses (P ≥ 0.13). Nonetheless, supplementation of probiotics, regardless of type (P = 0.59), reduced mean acetate:propionate ratio and rumen ammonia-N concentration vs. CONT (P ≤ 0.05). In experiment 2, no significant effects were observed for final BW and dry matter intake (P ≥ 0.12), but average daily gain and feed efficiency tended to improve (P ≤ 0.10) when probiotics were offered to the animals. Probiotic supplementation or type of probiotic did not affect carcass traits (P ≥ 0.22). In summary, supplementation of probiotics containing a mixture of E. faecium and S. cerevisiae or a mixture of B. licheniformis and B. subtilis reduced rumen acetate:propionate ratio and rumen ammonia-N levels and tended to improve the performance of feedlot cattle offered a high-concentrate diet.

Abstract
At present, mass production of basic and valuable commodities is dependent on linear petroleum-based industries, which ultimately makes the depletion of finite natural reserves and accumulation of non-biodegradable and hazardous wastes. Therefore, an ecofriendly and sustainable solution should be established for a circular economy where infinite resources, such as agro-industrial wastes, are fully utilized as substrates in the production of target value-added chemicals. Hereby, recent advances in metabolic engineering strategies and techniques used in the development of microbial cell factories for enhanced production of three-carbon platform chemicals such as lactic acid, propionic acid, and 3-hydroxypropionic acid are discussed. Further developments and future perspectives in the production of these organic acids from agro-industrial wastes from the dairy, sugar, and biodiesel industries are also highlighted to demonstrate the importance of waste-based biorefineries for organic acid production.

Abstract
We investigated the performance of a genome-reduced strain of Bacillus subtilis MGB874, whose 0.87 Mbp of genomic DNA was cumulatively deleted, as an ethanol production host. A recombinant strain A267_EtOH was constructed by introducing the pdc and adhB genes from Zymomonas mobilis, both of which were expressed from an isopropyl-β-d-1-thiogalactopyranoside-inducible spac promoter, into the A267 strain, a tryptophan prototrophic derivative of the MGB874 with disruption of metabolic pathways for producing lactic acid, acetic acid, and acetoin. Focusing on the stationary phase in fed-batch fermentation, 1.6 g L-1 ethanol was produced by the A267_EtOH strain after 144 h. Moreover, its ethanol production further increased by approximately 3.7-fold (5.9 g L-1) at 80 h through replacing the spac promoter for expressing pdc and adhB genes with the lytR promoter and the yield was about 112%. These results indicate that the MGB874 is an effective host for ethanol production during the stationary phase.

Abstract
The industrial relevance of organic acids is high; because of their chemical properties, they can be used as building blocks as well as single-molecule agents with a huge annual market. Organic acid chemical platforms can derive from fossil sources by petrochemical refining processes, but most of them also represent natural metabolites produced by many cells. They are the products, by-products or co-products of many primary metabolic processes of microbial cells. Thanks to the potential of microbial cell factories and to the development of industrial biotechnology, from the last decades of the previous century, the microbial-based production of these molecules has started to approach the market. This was possible because of a joint effort of microbial biotechnologists and biochemical and process engineers that boosted natural production up to the titer, yield and productivity needed to be industrially competitive. More recently, the possibility to utilize renewable residual biomasses as feedstock not only for biofuels, but also for organic acids production is further augmenting the sustainability of their production, in a logic of circular bioeconomy. In this review, we briefly present the latest updates regarding the production of some industrially relevant organic acids (citric fumaric, itaconic, lactic and succinic acid), discussing the challenges and possible future developments of successful production.

Abstract
Large-scale worldwide production of plastics requires the use of large quantities of fossil fuels, leading to a negative impact on the environment. If the production of plastic continues to increase at the current rate, the industry will account for one fifth of global oil use by 2050. Bioplastics currently represent less than one percent of total plastic produced, but they are expected to increase in the coming years, due to rising demand. The usage of bioplastics would allow the dependence on fossil fuels to be reduced and could represent an opportunity to add some interesting functionalities to the materials. Moreover, the plastics derived from bio-based resources are more carbon-neutral and their manufacture generates a lower amount of greenhouse gasses. The substitution of conventional plastic with renewable plastic will therefore promote a more sustainable economy, society, and environment. Consequently, more and more studies have been focusing on the production of interesting bio-based building blocks for bioplastics. However, a coherent review of the contribution of fermentation technology to a more sustainable plastic production is yet to be carried out. Here, we present the recent advancement in bioplastic production and describe the possible integration of bio-based monomers as renewable precursors. Representative examples of both published and commercial fermentation processes are discussed.

Abstract
Bioethanol produced by fermentative microorganisms is regarded as an alternative to fossil fuel. Bioethanol to be used as a viable energy source must be produced cost-effectively by removing expense-intensive steps such as the enzymatic hydrolysis of substrate. Consolidated bioprocessing (CBP) is believed to be a practical solution combining saccharification and fermentation in a single step catalyzed by a microorganism. Bacillus subtills with innate ability to grow on a diversity of carbohydrates seems promising for affordable CBP bioethanol production using renewable plant biomass and wastes. In this study, the genes encoding alcohol dehydrogenase from Z. mobilis (adhZ) and S. cerevisiae (adhS) were each used with Z. mobilis pyruvate decarboxylase gene (pdcZ) to create ethanologenic operons in a lactate-deficient (Δldh) B. subtilis resulting in NZ and NZS strains, respectively. The S. cerevisiae adhS caused significantly more ethanol production by NZS and therefore was used to make two other operons including one with double copies of both pdcZ and adhS and the other with a single pdcZ but double adhS genes expressed in N(ZS)2 and NZS2 strains, respectively. In addition, two fusion genes were constructed with pdcZ and adhS in alternate orientations and used for ethanol production by the harboring strains namely NZ:S and NS:Z, respectively. While the increase of gene dosage was not associated with elevated carbon flow for ethanol production, the fusion gene adhS:pdcZ resulted in a more than two times increase of productivity by strain NS:Z as compared with NZS during 48 h fermentation. The CBP ethanol production by NZS and NS:Z using potatoes resulted in 16.3 g/L and 21.5 g/L ethanol during 96 h fermentation, respectively. For the first time in this study, B. subtilis was successfully used for CBP ethanol production with S. cerevisiae alcohol dehydrogenase. The results of the study provide insights on the potentials of B. subtilis for affordable bioethanol production from inexpensive plant biomass and wastes. However, the potentials need to be improved by metabolic and process engineering for higher yields of ethanol production and plant biomass utilization.

Abstract
Materials in nature have fascinating properties that serve as a continuous source of inspiration for materials scientists. Accordingly, bio-mimetic and bio-inspired approaches have yielded remarkable structural and functional materials for a plethora of applications. Despite these advances, many properties of natural materials remain challenging or yet impossible to incorporate into synthetic materials. Natural materials are produced by living cells, which sense and process environmental cues and conditions by means of signaling and genetic programs, thereby controlling the biosynthesis, remodeling, functionalization, or degradation of the natural material. In this context, synthetic biology offers unique opportunities in materials sciences by providing direct access to the rational engineering of how a cell senses and processes environmental information and translates them into the properties and functions of materials. Here, we identify and review two main directions by which synthetic biology can be harnessed to provide new impulses for the biologization of the materials sciences: first, the engineering of cells to produce precursors for the subsequent synthesis of materials. This includes materials that are otherwise produced from petrochemical resources, but also materials where the bio-produced substances contribute unique properties and functions not existing in traditional materials. Second, engineered living materials that are formed or assembled by cells or in which cells contribute specific functions while remaining an integral part of the living composite material. We finally provide a perspective of future scientific directions of this promising area of research and discuss science policy that would be required to support research and development in this field.

Abstract
The dairy industry produces large amounts of whey as a by- or co-product, which has led to considerable environmental problems due to its high organic matter content. Over the past decades, possibilities of more environmentally and economically efficient whey utilisation have been studied, primarily to convert unwanted end products into a valuable raw material. Sustainable whey management is mostly oriented to biotechnological and food applications for the development of value-added products such as whey powders, whey proteins, functional food and beverages, edible films and coatings, lactic acid and other biochemicals, bioplastic, biofuels and similar valuable bioproducts. This paper provides an overview of the sustainable utilization of whey and its constituents, considering new refining approaches and integrated processes to convert whey, or lactose and whey proteins to high value-added whey-based products.

Abstract
Currently, increasing demand of biochemicals produced from renewable resources has motivated researchers to seek microbial production strategies instead of traditional chemical methods. As a microbial platform, Bacillus subtilis possesses many advantages including the generally recognized safe status, clear metabolic networks, short growth cycle, mature genetic editing methods and efficient protein secretion systems. Engineered B. subtilis strains are being increasingly used in laboratory research and in industry for the production of valuable proteins and other chemicals. In this review, we first describe the recent advances of bioinformatics strategies during the research and applications of B. subtilis. Secondly, the applications of B. subtilis in enzymes and recombinant proteins production are summarized. Further, the recent progress in employing metabolic engineering and synthetic biology strategies in B. subtilis platform strain to produce commodity chemicals is systematically introduced and compared. Finally, the major limitations for the further development of B. subtilis platform strain and possible future directions for its research are also discussed.

Abstract
Sugarcane bagasse is a rich source of cellulose (32-45%), hemicellulose (20-32%) and lignin (17-32%), 1.0-9.0% ash and some extractives. Huge amount of the generation of sugarcane bagasse has been a great challenge to industries and environment at global level for many years. Though cellulosic and hemicellulosic fractions in bagasse makes it a potential raw substrate for the production of value-added products at large scale, the presence of lignin hampers its saccharification which further leads to low yields of the value-added products. Therefore, an appropriate pretreatment strategy is of utmost importance that effectively solubilizes the lignin that exposes cellulose and hemicellulose for enzymatic action. Pretreatment also reduces the biomass recalcitrance i.e., cellulose crystallinity, structural complexity of cell wall and lignification for its effective utilization in biorefinery. Sugarcane bagasse served as nutrient medium for the cultivation of diverse microorganisms for the production of industrially important metabolites including enzymes, reducing sugars, prebiotic, organic acids and biofuels. Sugarcane bagasse has been utilized in the generation of electricity, syngas and as biosorbant in the bioremediation of heavy metals. Furthermore, the ash generated from bagasse is an excellent source for the synthesis of high strength and light weight bricks and tiles. Present review describes the utility of sugarcane bagasse as sustainable and renewable lignocellulosic substrate for the production of industrially important multifarious value-added products.

Evolutionary engineering of Lactobacillus bulgaricus reduces enzyme usage and enhances conversion of lignocellulosics to D-lactic acid by simultaneous saccharification and fermentation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) of pre-treated lignocellulosics to biofuels and other platform chemicals has long been a promising alternative to separate hydrolysis and fermentation processes. However, the disparity between the optimum conditions (temperature, pH) for fermentation and enzyme hydrolysis leads to execution of the SSF process at sub-optimal conditions, which can affect the rate of hydrolysis and cellulose conversion. The fermentation conditions could be synchronized with hydrolysis optima by carrying out the SSF at a higher temperature, but this would require a thermo-tolerant organism. Economically viable production of platform chemicals from lignocellulosic biomass (LCB) has long been stymied because of the significantly higher cost of hydrolytic enzymes. The major objective of this work is to develop an SSF strategy for D-lactic acid (D-LA) production by a thermo-tolerant organism, in which the enzyme loading could significantly be reduced without compromising on the overall conversion. RESULTS A thermo-tolerant strain of Lactobacillus bulgaricus was developed by adaptive laboratory evolution (ALE) which enabled the SSF to be performed at 45 °C with reduced enzyme usage. Despite the reduction of enzyme loading from 15 Filter Paper Unit/gLCB (FPU/gLCB) to 5 FPU/gLCB, we could still achieve ~ 8% higher cellulose to D-LA conversion in batch SSF, in comparison to the conversion by separate enzymatic hydrolysis and fermentation processes at 45 °C and pH 5.5. Extending the batch SSF to SSF with pulse-feeding of 5% pre-treated biomass and 5 FPU/gLCB, at 12-h intervals (36th-96th h), resulted in a titer of 108 g/L D-LA and 60% conversion of cellulose to D-LA. This is one among the highest reported D-LA titers achieved from LCB. CONCLUSIONS We have demonstrated that the SSF strategy, in conjunction with evolutionary engineering, could drastically reduce enzyme requirement and be the way forward for economical production of platform chemicals from lignocellulosics. We have shown that fed-batch SSF processes, designed with multiple pulse-feedings of the pre-treated biomass and enzyme, can be an effective way of enhancing the product concentrations.

Abstract
The present study aims to examine the process for L-lactic acid production from low-grade cassava chips (LGC) using a two-step fermentation approach (TSF) and simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) by proficient, newly isolated Lactobacillus rhamnosus strain SCJ9. The optimized medium composition revealed by response surface methodology for TSF was 166 g/L LGC hydrolysate and 20 g/L yeast extract (YE), while other medium components were fixed (g/L) as follows: tween80 (2.0), (NH4)2HPO4 (2.0), CH3COONa∙3H2O (6.0), (NH4)2HC6H5O7 (2.0), MgSO4∙7H2O (0.5), and MnSO4∙H2O (0.3). Based on the optimization conditions, the maximum experimental L-lactic acid of 134.6 g/L was achieved at 60 h fermentation time with a production efficiency of 89.73%, 0.95 g/g yield and 2.24 g/L/h productivity. In contrast, L-lactic acid production by SSF under optimized concentrations of thermostable-α-amylase (AA) and glucoamylase (GA) gave maximum L-lactic acid of 125.79 g/L at only 36 h fermentation time which calculated to the production efficiency, yield and productivity of 83.86%, 0.93 g/g and 3.49 g/L/h, respectively. The L-lactic acid production obtained from SSF was significantly improved when compared to TSF based on lower enzyme loading usage, shorter hydrolysis time and increase in production efficiency and productivity. Furthermore, there were no significant differences in the production by SSF between experiments conducted in laboratory bottle and 10-L fermenter. The results indicated the success of up-scaling for L-lactic acid production by SSF which could be developed for a further pilot-scale production of L-lactic acid.

Abstract
Although biological upgrading of lignocellulosic sugars represents a promising and sustainable route to bioplastics, diverse and variable feedstock compositions (e.g., glucose from the cellulose fraction and xylose from the hemicellulose fraction) present several complex challenges. Specifically, sugar mixtures are often incompletely metabolized due to carbon catabolite repression while composition variability further complicates the optimization of co-utilization rates. Benefiting from several unique features including division of labor, increased metabolic diversity, and modularity, synthetic microbial communities represent a promising platform with the potential to address persistent bioconversion challenges. In this work, two unique and catabolically orthogonal Escherichia coli co-cultures systems were developed and used to enhance the production of D-lactate and succinate (two bioplastic monomers) from glucose-xylose mixtures (100 g L-1 total sugars, 2:1 by mass). In both cases, glucose specialist strains were engineered by deleting xylR (encoding the xylose-specific transcriptional activator, XylR) to disable xylose catabolism, whereas xylose specialist strains were engineered by deleting several key components involved with glucose transport and phosphorylation systems (i.e., ptsI, ptsG, galP, glk) while also increasing xylose utilization by introducing specific xylR mutations. Optimization of initial population ratios between complementary sugar specialists proved a key design variable for each pair of strains. In both cases, ∼91% utilization of total sugars was achieved in mineral salt media by simple batch fermentation. High product titer (88 g L-1 D-lactate, 84 g L-1 succinate) and maximum productivity (2.5 g L-1 h-1 D-lactate, 1.3 g L-1 h-1 succinate) and product yield (0.97 g g-total sugar-1 for D-lactate, 0.95 g g-total sugar-1 for succinate) were also achieved.

Abstract
d-Lactate is one of the most valuable compounds for manufacturing biobased polymers. Here, we have investigated the significance of endogenous malate dehydrogenase (decarboxylating) (malic enzyme, ME), which catalyzes the oxidative decarboxylation of malate to pyruvate, in d-lactate biosynthesis in the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC6803. d-Lactate levels were increased by 2-fold in ME-overexpressing strains, while levels in ME-deficient strains were almost equivalent to those in the host strain. Dynamic metabolomics revealed that overexpression of ME led to increased turnover rates in malate and pyruvate metabolism; in contrast, deletion of ME resulted in increased pool sizes of glycolytic intermediates, probably due to sequential feedback inhibition, initially triggered by malate accumulation. Finally, both the loss of the acetate kinase gene and overexpression of endogenous d-lactate dehydrogenase, concurrent with ME overexpression, resulted in the highest production of d-lactate (26.6 g/L) with an initial cell concentration of 75 g-DCW/L after 72 h fermentation.

Abstract
Acetyl-CoA is the central metabolic node connecting glycolysis, Krebs cycle and fatty acids synthase. Plant-derived polyketides, are assembled from acetyl-CoA and malonyl-CoA, represent a large family of biological compounds with diversified bioactivity. Harnessing microbial bioconversion is considered as a feasible approach to large-scale production of polyketides from renewable feedstocks. Most of the current polyketide production platform relied on the lengthy glycolytic steps to provide acetyl-CoA, which inherently suffers from complex regulation with metabolically-costly cofactor/ATP requirements. Using the simplest polyketide triacetic acid lactone (TAL) as a testbed molecule, we demonstrate that acetate uptake pathway in oleaginous yeast (Yarrowia lipolytica) could function as an acetyl-CoA shortcut to achieve metabolic optimality in producing polyketides. We identified the metabolic bottlenecks to rewire acetate utilization for efficient TAL production in Y. lipolytica, including generation of the driving force for acetyl-CoA, malonyl-CoA and NADPH. The engineered strain, with the overexpression of endogenous acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC1), malic enzyme (MAE1) and a bacteria-derived cytosolic pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH), affords robust TAL production with titer up to 4.76 g/L from industrial glacier acetic acid in shake flasks, representing 8.5-times improvement over the parental strain. The acetate-to-TAL conversion ratio (0.149 g/g) reaches 31.9% of the theoretical maximum yield. The carbon flux through this acetyl-CoA metabolic shortcut exceeds the carbon flux afforded by the native glycolytic pathways. Potentially, acetic acid could be manufactured in large-quantity at low-cost from Syngas fermentation or heterogenous catalysis (methanol carbonylation). This alternative carbon sources present a metabolic advantage over glucose to unleash intrinsic pathway limitations and achieve high carbon conversion efficiency and cost-efficiency. This work also highlights that low-cost acetic acid could be sustainably upgraded to high-value polyketides by oleaginous yeast species in an eco-friendly and cost-efficient manner.

Abstract
D-Lactic acid (D-LA) is an enantiomer of lactic acid, which has a niche application in synthesis of poly-lactic acid based (PLA) polymer owing to its contribution to the thermo-stability of stereo-complex PLA polymer. Utilization of renewable substrates such as whey permeate is pivotal to economically viable production of D-LA. In present work, we have demonstrated D-LA production from whey permeate by Lactobacillus delbrueckii and engineered Lactococcus lactis. We observed that lactose fermentation by a monoculture of L. delbrueckii yields D-LA and galactose as major products. The highest yield of D-LA obtained was 0.48 g g-1 when initial lactose concentration was 30 g L-1. Initial lactose concentration beyond 20 g L-1 resulted in accumulation of glucose and galactose, and hence, reduced the stoichiometric yield of D-LA. L. lactis naturally produces L-lactic acid (L-LA), so a mutant strain of L. lactis (L. lactis Δldh ΔldhB ΔldhX) was used to prevent L-LA production and engineer it for D-LA production. Heterologous over-expression of D-lactate dehydrogenase (ldhA) in the recombinant strain L. lactis TSG1 resulted in 0.67 g g-1 and 0.44 g g-1 of D-LA yield from lactose and galactose, respectively. Co-expression of galactose permease (galP) and α-phosphoglucomutase (pgmA) with ldhA in the recombinant strain L. lactis TSG3 achieved a D-LA yield of 0.92 g g-1 from galactose. A co-culture batch process of L. delbrueckii and L. lactis TSG3 achieved an enhanced stoichiometric yield of 0.90 g g-1 and ~45 g L-1D-LA from whey permeate (lactose). This is the highest reported yield of D-LA from lactose substrate, and the titres can be improved further by a suitably designed fed-batch co-culture process.

Abstract
The production of biodegradable polymers as alternatives to petroleum-based plastics has gained significant attention in the past years. To this end, polylactic acid (PLA) constitutes a promising alternative, finding various applications from food packaging to pharmaceuticals. Recent studies have shown that d-lactic acid plays a vital role in the production of heat-resistant PLA. At the same time, the utilization of renewable resources is imperative in order to decrease the production cost. This review aims to provide a synopsis of the current state of the art regarding d-lactic acid production via fermentation, focusing on the exploitation of waste and byproduct streams. An overview of potential downstream separation schemes is also given. Additionally, three case studies are presented and discussed, reporting the obtained results utilizing acid whey, coffee mucilage and hydrolysate from rice husks as alternative feedstocks for d-lactic acid production.
