Abstract
It has been demonstrated that a L(+)-lactic acid concentration as high as 162 g l(-1) can be obtained from barley starch in a relatively sho ut processing time of less than 48 h with a balanced simultaneous liqu efaction, saccharification, and fermentation. Yields of 98 and 87% wer e obtained from 130 and 170 g l(-1) starch, respectively. A 10% inocul um was determined to be optimal under the experimental conditions inve stigated.
