Overview of Lactic Acid

Lactic Acid is a naturally occurring acid that is characterized by its colourless, clear to light yellow liquid and a slightly acidic flavour. It is known because of its importance in food preservation, flavouring, and pH control. Lactic Acid is produced both organically and through a natural fermentation process that involves carbohydrates. It is extensively used in the beverage and food sector as a preservative and acidulant, which enhances flavour and shelf-life. In addition, Lactic Acid is an essential ingredient in pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and biodegradable plastics. The moisturizing and exfoliating qualities are the primary active ingredients in formulations for skincare.
