Lactic acid fermentation can be modeled by the following equation: Pyruvic acid + NADH → Lactic acid + NAD+
LACTIC ACID FERMENTATION:
- Fermentation is a process undergone by some anaerobic organisms. Ideally, the process of cellular respiration proceeds as follows in the presence of oxygen: Glycolysis- Kreb cycle - ETC.
- However, in the absence of oxygen (anaerobic condition), the product of glycolysis which is pyruvic acid combines with an electron carrier (NADH) to give rise to lactic acid and NAD+.
- This means that pyruvic acid is reduced while NADH is oxidized as modelled in the following equation:
- Pyruvic acid + NADH → Lactic acid + NAD+

It’s very confusing sorry for that
