The related link below is very useful to get inside of the various processes linked to Lactic Acid.
Liver
Anaerobic respiration is the breakdown of energy rich molecules without sufficient quantities of oxygen present. Lactic acid fermentation is C6H12O6 (glucose) yields 2CH3CH(OH)CO2H (lactic acid).
Lactic acid is the painful product of a good workout. It is what builds up in your muscles and makes them burn. The acid is called an intermediate breakdown because it is only part of the process that glucose goes through in the human body.
the breakdown of glucose to form lactic acid and energy
Lactic acid has two optical isomers: L-lactic acid and D-lactic acid.
No, d/l-lactic acid is NOT a bleaching compound
it is the conversion of glucose into lactic acid
Lactic acid
2 molecules of pyruvate acid that is transported to the Krebs Cycle
The lactic acid energy system relies on the breakdown of glycogen to produce energy. As it does not require oxygen to break down glycogen a by-product called lactic acid is formed. If enough lactic acid is accumulated then the body begins to fatigue. To recover, the lactic acid requires oxygen. Once oxgen is present the lactic acid can be converted back to pyruvic acid which can once again be used to produce energy. Therefore to speed up recovery of the lactic system an "active"recovery at a low intencity is recommended. This then employs the use of the aerobic energy system which requires oxygen to be transported to the working muscles, and at the same time removing the fatiguing lactic acid.
Fermentation is the anaerobic breakdown of sugars into alcohol, carbon-dioxide, and lactic acid.

It is generally accepted that epinephrine promotes the breakdown of muscle glycogen to lactic acid and that this lactic acid is largely reconverted to glycogen by the liver.
