Lactic acid production a bibliometric study

Abstract

Bibliometrics is a documentary analysis tool that is positioning itself as a support to know and understand the study status of a specific topic. In this case, the VOSviewer software was used to determine the evolution of lactic acid production, carried out through a programmed search with the VOSviewer application, which allowed a clear and reliable bibliographic review for the topic development under study, which made possible to obtain enough material to know who, where and in what year have published about the latest advances in the production of lactic acid. The database used was Scopus, with the search equation “lactic acid” and production and “natural sources”.
