Identifying the feasibility of co-production of d -mandelic acid and benzoylformic acid by E. coli expressing V108A l -iLDH. (A) Comparison of capacities for degrading l-mandelic acid of E. coli strains expressing wild-type or V108A l-iLDH. () The catalytic process of the E. coli strain expressing wild-type l-iLDH; (▪) The catalytic process of the E. coli strain expressing V108A l-iLDH. (B) The catalytic process of the E. coli strain expressing V108A l-iLDH with racemic mandelic acid as the substrate. () Concentration of racemic mandelic acid; (▪) Concentration of benzoylformic acid. Values are the mean ± SD of 3 separate determinations.
