Efficient production of lactic acid from cellulose and xylan in sugarcane bagasse by newly isolated Lactiplantibacillus plantarum and Levilactobacillus brevis through simultaneous saccharification and co-fermentation process

open access: yesHeliyon, 2023
Sugarcane bagasse is one of the promising lignocellulosic feedstocks for bio-based chemicals production. However, to date, most research focuses mainly on the cellulose conversion process, while hemicellulose remains largely underutilized. The conversion
