In this study, white rice bran, a byproduct of rice milling, was developed for l-lactic acid production. The hydrolyte of white rice bran could be used as carbon and nutrient sources for l-lactic acid fermentation with a productivity of 3.73 kg m<SUP>-3</SUP> h<SUP>-1</SUP> in batch fermentation, which was 1.52 times higher than that of the control medium with glucose and yeast extract. These results showed a potential for development of high value-added products from white rice bran.
