Question

4Define fermentation of lactobacili​

Answer 1

Answer:

Lacto-fermentation uses lactic-acid-producing bacteria (primarily from the Lactobacillus genus), as well as some yeasts. These bacteria break down the sugars in food to form lactic acid and sometimes alcohol or carbon dioxide ( 1 , 3, 4 ).

Answer 2

Lactic acid fermentation is a metabolic process by which glucose or other six-carbon sugars (also, disaccharides of six-carbon sugars, e.g. sucrose or lactose) are converted into cellular energy and the metabolite lactate, which is lactic acid in solution.
