3. Fermentation history
 Evidence suggest that fermented foods were
consumed 7000 years ago in Babylon.
 The study of fermentation is called Zymology.
 Scientist speculate that our ancestors possible
discovered fermentation by ancient and
continued to use the process out of preference
or necessity.
 Benefits nutritional value.

4. What is fermentation?
•Fermentation is the decay of
material using special bacteria
which results in a more
desirable product.
•Fermentation is the
biochemical conservation of
sugars, starches, or
carbohydrates into alcohol and
organic acids by bacteria and
enzymes.

5. Cont……
 Symbiotic relations with some forms of
bacteria they need (carbohydrates) and give
(preserving agent).
 A “starter culture” containing the preferred
bacteria is introduced to the foods to be
fermented.
 This can be done by adding a small sampling
from a previous batch.

6. Fermentation method of preparing food:
 Material cured in a brine solution (salt, water,
sometimes spices and sugar) are naturally
fermented or pickled.
 Anaerobic bacteria convert carbohydrates to
pickle.
 Preserves the food, the brine protects the
vegetables from aerobic organisms.

• vegtable created with vineger fresh pack, or
quik-process method are not naturally
fermentation .
Pickle:

8.  The acid of the vineger preserves the food and
imparts the flavours of the herbs, and spices
used.
 Vineger does not ferment foods, but is a product
of fermentation.

9.  Bread is raised by the process of
fermentation .
 Yeast eat the sugar, creates carbohydrates
carbon dioxide gas doubling the amount of
food, and produces alcohol that is burned off
in baking.

13. How fermentation preserves foods?
 The desirable bacteria cause less
deterioration of the food by inhibiting the
growth of the spoiling types of bacteria .
 Some fermentating processes lower the ph of
foods preventing harmful microorganisms to
live with too acidic and environment.
 The fermentation process can be stopped by
other means of preserving such as canning
(heating), drying or freezing.

14. Cont…
 Heat (pasterurization 45 f) and low temperature
(freezing 32f or below) stops the fermenting
process by slowing or killing , the preferred
microorganisms, and other bacteria.
 The causes rotting disease, illness, and inedible
foods.
 When the goods guys are present and happy, the
food remains edible.

16. conclusion
 Other types of fermentation include mixed
acid fermentation, butanediol fermentation,
butyrate fermentation, caprote fermentation,
acetone-butanol-ethanol fermentation and
glyoxylate fermentation.
