Lactic acid is an organic compound with acidic properties represented by the formula CH3CH(OH)COOH. When the acid is in the solid state, it is white in color, whereas it becomes colorless in the liquid state. It is naturally found in dairy products, such as yogurt, buttermilk, cheese and other food products like sourdough bread, miso, soy sauce and pickles.
Lactic acid is produced industrially either by the fermentation of carbohydrates, glucose or any other five or six-carbon sugars, which are converted into metabolite lactate and energy. Lactic acid is also synthesized by reacting acetaldehyde with hydrogen cyanide. It is widely used as a food preservative, flavor enhancer, curing agent and decontaminant during meat processing in the food and beverage industry. It is also used in the production of polylactic acid, which finds extensive applications in the pharmaceutical sector on account of its biodegradability and biocompatibility.
