What is it about?
We demonstrated that L. delbrueckii mutant Uc-3 was able to utilize glucose preferentially to produce lactic acid and fructose from hydrolyzed cane sugar in batch fermentation process. The results demonstrated that we can produce high fructose syrup along with L-lactic acid.

Why is it important?
These findings will be useful in the production of lactic acid and high fructose syrups using media with high concentrations of sucrose-based raw materials. This approach can lead to modification of the traditional fermentation processes to obtain value-added byproducts, attaining better process economics.
Perspectives
This article demonstrated that how one can produce two value added products in a single step fermentation. Both products are bulk products having great commercial importance.
