Novel bioprocess to co-produce
simultaneously lactobionic and
gluconic acid.
Substrate versatility of P. taetrolens
was evaluated in a co-fermentation
system.
Glycerol supply promoted cell growth
but gave lower lactobionic acid yields.
Overproduction of lactobionic acid
was achieved by lactose feeding.
Cellular functionality was strongly
reliant on the type of co-substrate
supplied
