Applications of Fermentation.pptx.......

From principles of animal life

1. Applications of Fermentation

2. In past meaning of fermentation was to prepare food and spirit from microorganisms . In biotechnology term fermentation means prepare any product from microorganism culture.

3. 1-Fermented Food   Alcoholic beverage(brewing):   Yeast enzyme ferments sugar to produce alcohol and carbon dioxide . Yogurt production (Dairy ): bacteria uptake lactose from the milk,    condense the milk   lactic acid +acetaldehyde

4. Bread Making (baking ):   yeast is added to the batter of the bread , sugar is fermented and carbon dioxide gas is formed. Producing vitamin C: D-sorbitol is converted to L- sorbose and L-sorbose are converted to L-ascorbic acid (Vitamin C).

5. Preservation of food: Alcohol and acid are good factors that prevent spoilage by inhibiting the growth of microorganisms .

6. 2-Industrial Products Fuel production: E thanol is used to produce Gasohol. Gasohol is a combination of gasoline and alcohol . P harmaceutical Application: Some antibiotics or other drugs are produced through the fermentation process . For example ,   glycerol from molasses by Saccharomyces cerevisiae by Fermentation.

7.   Health benefit: Fermentation improves digestion by degrading nutrients into digestible forms. General uses: Formic acid leather formation Ethanol vinegar preparation Glycerol soap formation Acrylic acid plastic formation
