FERMENTATIONS Pasteur defined “FERMENTATION” as life in the absence of oxygen Fermentations are nowadays defined as a processes that do not involve electron transport chains that use oxygen, nitrate or other electron acceptors The majority of fermentations generate ATP by substrate level phosphorylation Microorganisms can be classified as Facultative anaerobes Strict anaerobes Ethanol Fermentation • Yeast Bacteria PULQUE Zymomonas mobilis LACTIC ACID FERMENTATION Homofermentative pathway HETEROFERMENTATIVE PATHWAY BIFIDUM PATHWAY BUTIRATE AND BUTANOL/CETONE FERMENTATIONS Linear and branched fermentative pathways MIXED ACID FERMENTATION METHANE FERMENTATION ATP synthesis only occurs due to protonmotive force
