Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are a diverse group of Gram-positive microorganisms widely exploited for their capacity to ferment carbohydrates into lactic acid stereoisomers. Central to their metabolism ...

Substrate inhibition is a longstanding bottleneck in microbial fermentation, particularly in lactic acid bacteria, where ...

Gene-metabolite map of the GABA and lactic acid pathways in florets from packed cultivars. Differential gene expressions (squares) and differential compound abundances (circles) in Olter and BAT39 ...

A new study maps how specific lactic acid bacteria can enhance both the flavor and nutritional quality of plant-based dairy alternatives. The findings may have wide-reaching perspectives for the ...

Lactic acid (LA) has transitioned from being perceived as a mere glycolytic waste product to a pivotal regulator of tumor-immune crosstalk. Historical milestones—from Scheele's 1780 isolation from ...

Here’s what actually happens during yogurt fermentation and why it matters for gut health. Fermentation is an anaerobic ...
