Description A detailed metabolic flux analysis for lactic acid production by Streptococcus lactis has been carried out. A metabolic reaction set was constructed for the metabolism of S. lactis. Fluxes through these reactions were estimated by using accumulation rates of biomass, product and consumption rates of the substrate, which were obtained through experiments. The changes in the flux movement are shown for different pHs and initial lactate concentrations of the medium. The analysis indicated that pH only affected the uptake rates of lactose, whereas lactate ion concentration influenced the movement of flux through the network. (C) 1997 .
