Ethanol fermentation
Ethanol fermentation
, also called
alcoholic fermentation
, is a
biological process
which converts
sugars
such as
glucose
,
fructose
, and
sucrose
into
cellular energy
, producing
ethanol
and
carbon dioxide
as a side-effect. Because
yeasts
perform this conversion in the absence of
oxygen
, alcoholic fermentation is considered an anaerobic process.
