To reduce nutrient cost for lactic acid production, spent cells, a by-product in fermentation processes, were used as a nutrient source and the treatments of spent cells were investigated in this study.

Untreated spent cells did not show significant effect on lactic acid production.

After acid-hydrolysis, spent cells gave an increase in productivity to some extent, but the low glucose consumption indicated a nutrient limitation.

The nutrient limitation was overcome easily by supplementing a small amount of yeast extract (YE).

The combination of 5 g/L YE and the spent cell hydrolyzate (SCH) had high performance in lactic acid production relative to 15 g/L YE.

Moreover, two kind of acid-hydrolysis methods, diluted acid based hydrolysis and concentrated acid based hydrolysis, were also compared.

The diluted acid based hydrolysis had the advantages over the concentrated acid based one in lactic acid production due to its less nutrient destruction and lower salt inhibition.

When diluted acid based SCH was supplemented, YE supplementation could be cut down to 20% with no significant decrease in productivity and yield.

When muscle cells cannot get the oxygen they need for cellular respiration, they use the process of fermentation to get energy. So basically muscle cells.

How does swimming use lactic acid?

After a while of swimming, your muscles use lactic acid. It uses it through Lactic acid fermentation. It results in more energy.


When there is no oxygen for your cells the cells use this to get energy?

Do your body cells always use cellular respiration and fermentation?

Yes. Cell respiration and lactic acid fermentation.

Explain why muscles must use lactic acid fermentation instead of cellular respiration during intense physical activity?

Because mammalian muscle cells are genetically programmed to perform lactic acid fermentation, not ethanol fermentation.

Why do sports such as swimming and running use the lactic acid system?

Lactic acid is produced when muscles in the body move at high rates and over long periods of time. So, even with swimming, you move your arms and legs a lot to gain speed, and this causes the acid to form. In reality, this acid is another type of acid, however it combines with oxygen to form Lactic Acid.


List the two type of fermentation and tell where each take place?

The two types of fermentation are alcoholic fermentation, and lactic-acid fermentation. Alcoholic fermentation, occurs in yeast and other single celled organisms. Lactic-acid fermentation occurs in muscle cells. Your muscles use it to create energy when there is not enough oxygen to use for normal respiration.
