Microbial Malic Acid Production: Exploring New Avenues of Synthesizing a Commercially-Valuable Chemical

Thomas P West

In tMalic acid is a commercially-valuable organic acid that has a variety of uses. The production of malic acid from various types of biomass is being explored to a limited extent. New avenues of producing this commercially-valuable chemical by biomass-based microbial bioconversion need to be investigated. There is an opportunity to determine which avenue of microbial bioconversion is the most efficient in synthesizing this industrially-important organic acid from biomass or processing coproducts.
