  • Pyruvic acid is reduced by NADH forming a molecule of lactic acid.
  • C3H4O3 + NADH + H+ → C3H6O3 + NAD+
  • The process is called lactic acid fermentation.
  • The process is energetically wasteful because so much free energy remains in the lactic acid molecule. (It can also be debilitating because of the drop in pH as the lactic acid produced in overworked muscles is transported out into the blood.)

oholic fermentation. The process is energetically wasteful because so much of the free energy of glucose (some 95%) remains in the alcohol (a good fuel!).

In Mitochondria Pyruvic acid is oxidized completely to form carbon dioxide and water. The process is called cellular respiration. Link to a discussion of cellular respiration. Approxima
