Application of lactic acid
For what purposes is this product suitable and in what areas is it used most often? Where can I buy lactic acid in the right volume on favorable and convenient terms?
Organic lactic acid is a member of the family of alpha hydroxy acids
(AHA-acids). In its natural form, such a product is found in wine, milk,
cheeses, some vegetables (cabbage, guava, tomatoes, etc.) and fruits.
He is an active participant in various biochemical processes occurring
in the human body.
Interesting information
Today, lactic acid is extracted in industry mainly without the participation of components of animal origin. One of these methods is used: chemical synthesis or fermentation of sugar-containing substrates by special microorganisms. The acid is transparent in color, resembles syrup in consistency, has no smell, tastes sour.
Lactic acid has several important features:
- during physical activity, it is formed in human muscles (simultaneously with the breakdown of glucose);
- has a good environmental profile, biodegradable;
- with the help of polycondensation of this acid, it is possible to obtain plastic PLA (biodegradable).

About the application
Lactic acid wholesale and retail is available for use in such areas as the food industry and modern cosmetology.
In the manufacture of food products, lactic acid acts as a flavor enhancer and acidifier in food products such as salted and pickled vegetables, beer, pasta, bread, jams, marmalades, jellies, etc. Such acid can also be used as a preservative, but it is unprofitable in terms of consumption (it takes a lot).
In cosmetics (including peels, intimate hygiene products, shower gels, shampoos, various products for sensitive skin), such a product is needed to regulate the pH formula, as well as to endow skin products with exfoliating and moisturizing characteristics, to strengthen hair (including bleached). It also gives the skin a natural glow, helps to remove dead cells, promotes cellular renewal, and eliminates early signs of aging. In cosmetic products, lactic acid is often combined with other AHA acids (for example, glycolic acid).
Lactic acid is also in demand in the production of detergents. All thanks to its antibacterial properties. It is also used in the production of some products for the medical field (including surgical threads).
The use of lactic acid is regulated in different countries of the world: Mexico, Brazil, China, Taiwan, Canada, etc. In the USA and in some other countries, local regulations apply to this product. The product, which contains AHA-acid, must have the appropriate labeling.
