Batch and continuous fermentation of lactic acid by Lactococcus Lactis using sago starch hydrolysate

Sago starch was hydrolysed enzymatically for use in both the batch and continuous fermentation studies. The best parameters for enzymatic hydrolysis were obtained from a glucose concentration of 20% DS sago starch, liquefaction and saccharification at pH 6.5 and pH 4.5 respectively, with the incubat...
