| Abstract: |
Batch fermentation of BISS (below Indian
standard sugar) in combination with Spirulina
hydrolysate (SH) has been successfully explored at 50 L scale to replace costly
glucose and yeast extract (YE) medium as a source of complex nutrients to
produce calcium lactate economically by using Lactobacillus delbruckii. This has led to optimization of a
protocol for cost-effective production of calcium lactate. Reduction in
duration of fermentation has potential to provide additional benefits of (i)
more batches per unit capital investment and time, (ii) less consumption of
utilities, and (iii) higher output per unit labour cost.
