Fermentation, a metabolic procedure, produces chemical alterations within organic substrates by the activities of enzymes. It is also explained as the process of energy extraction from carbohydrates in absence of oxygen. With the perspective related to the food processing sector, it is also defined as a process that brings the desired alteration in a beverage or food with the actions of specific microorganisms in a controlled environment or conditions.
While there are a number of chemicals used for the intended fermentation however, most commonly used products for fermentations are Alcohol, Enzymes, and Organic Acids.
Ethanol fermentation, also known as alcohol fermentation, is a biological procedure to convert various sugar forms such as sucrose, fructose and glucose into cellular energy resulting in the production of ethanol and carbon dioxide as by products. Mostly, berries, sugar cane, grapes, corn, wheat, rice, honey, potatoes, hops, barley and other plant materials are used for fermentation. Fermentation has its wide variety of commercial applications mostly in the food processing industry. A large variety of bacteria are utilized for the production of pickles, olives and sauerkraut from the raw olives, cucumbers, and cabbage, respectively. Alcoholic fermentation is the foundation for the manufacturing of alcoholic beverages like beer and wine. In few cases, many antibiotics and other drugs are prepared by using fermentation process. For instance, an important drug cortisone is also attained by the fermentation of diosgenin, a plant steroid.
