professor. While working as a professor he began to study the effect of bacteria in the alcohol fermentation process. While working on this he discovered yeast and that it was feeding off of the grapes and that it was a living thing. His next feet‚ was to prove that life is formed from living cells‚ that the yeast did not just spontaneously appear in the grapes. Through his work he was able to prove that the yeast did not just generate itself. He went on to invent the process of pasteurization‚ worked

INTRODUCTION Lactic Acid is an organic compound with the formula CH3CH (OH) COOH. Lactic is one of the types of fermentation which occur under anaerobic respiration to produce ATP without the use of oxygen. Anaerobic respiration takes place in certain prokaryotic organisms that have an Electron Transport Chain (ETC) but do not use oxygen as a final electron acceptor at the end of the chain (Campbell et all‚ 2015) different with the aerobic respiration which use oxygen to produce ATP and its final

Chapter 1 INTRODUCTION Wine is an alcoholic beverage produced through the partial or total fermentation of grapes‚ other fruits and plants such as berries‚ apples‚ cherries‚ dandelions elder berries ‚ palm and rice can also be fermented. Grapes belong to the botanical family vitaceae of which there are many species. The species that are most widely used in wine production are Vitislabrusca and specially Vitisvinefara‚ which has long been the most widely used wine grape throughout the world

Introduction: Biological organisms are classified uniformly in order to easily categorize and identify organisms. This classification‚ or taxonomy‚ uses the genus name followed by the species name‚ in Latin. By having a universal method of identifying bacteria allows for all scientists from any part of the world to identify the same species in an identical manner allowing for a precise of classification. Bacteria are distributed throughout the world in almost every conceivable habit. Bacteria are

The extraction of Bio-ethanol from banana and apple peelings through the process of Fermentation and Distillation Purpose & Hypothesis The main purpose of the experiment was to observe if the common household wastes apple and banana peelings- were suitable to be used as another source for production of bio-ethanol It was hypothesized that the banana peelings would produce more bio-ethanol than the apple peelings due to its greater amount of sugar Ethanol‚ which is also known as ethyl alcohol

previous mentioned discovery was the reason why Pasteur started researching fermentation in 1854‚ he figured that asymmetry was a sign of life among molecules of plants and animals. The topic of fermentation was very misunderstood during his time‚ Pasteur wanted to know the exact science behind fermentation. He asked himself‚ why did it work‚ why did it not work and the biggest question or debate was whether fermentation and putrefaction occurred spontaneously or happened some other way. He hypothesized

Background Research Yeast are eukaryotic microorganisms just like other organisms‚ they must respire in order to survive. Respiration can be defined as the controlled release of energy from organic compounds to form adenosine triphosphate (ATP). The type of respiration that occurs is called aerobic respiration. It occurs when glucose and oxygen are present. It can be summarized by the equation: . Enzymes play a very significant part in respiration. During the different stages of respiration‚ enzymes

wine". In the United States and some parts of Canada‚ "hard cider" usually refers to the alcoholic beverage discussed in this article‚ while "cider" may refer to non-alcoholic apple juice. When sugar or extra fruit has been added and a secondary fermentation increases the alcoholic strength‚ a cider is classified as "apple wine". The first recorded reference to cider is in Ancient Roman literature resulting from Julius Ceaser’s invasion of Britain in 55 BC. The Roman legions discovered the Ancient
