Detailed explanation-1: -secondary fermentation when alcohols are formed. Alcoholic fermentation takes place after the yeast glycolysis biochemical mechanism by which hexoses are converted to pyruvic acid and subsequently into ethyl alcohol and CO2.
Detailed explanation-2: -Alcoholic fermentation, also referred to as ethanol fermentation, is a biological process by which sugar is converted into alcohol and carbon dioxide. Yeasts are responsible for this process, and oxygen is not necessary, which means that alcoholic fermentation is an anaerobic process.
Detailed explanation-3: -Fermenting microorganisms and their by-products define the fermentation type. There are two main types of fermentation, called lactic acid fermentation and alcoholic fermentation (Figure 1) [2].
