Highlights

  • Engineered biotechnological conversion of lactic acid to caproic acid is still in the early stages of development

  • Period of high caproic acid production dominated by species belonging to the Ruminococcaceae family

  • When using an enriched culture, which has been cultivated on a lactic acid/butyric acid-containing medium, the highest yields of caproic acid were achieved at a reduced substrate concentration of 200 mM (r Lac/But =1:1)
