Optimization of Fermentation and Scale-up Process Development for Lactiplantibacillus plantarum WiKim0125

In probiotics production, lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are cultured on a large scale to achieve efficient processing through fermentation optimization and scale-up. In this Current study, the LAB strain Lactiplantibacillus plantarum WiKim0125 was isolated from kimchi and optimized the production. The optimization strategy for cultivating L. plantarum WiKim0125 consisted of investigating media components, selecting physiochemical conditions to enhance productivity, and scaling up for pilot-scale production. Each process condition was evaluated based on substrate consumption, lactic acid production, and viable cell yield. As a result, the final viable cell and lactic acid yield of L. plantarum WiKim0125 increased by 38.6% and 19.4%, respectively. This study provides an overview of fermentation optimization and scale-up processes for the industrial application of L. plantarum WiKim0125.
