Making alcoholic beverages - involve the action of fungi. Mostly involve the genus Saccharomyces – - convert six glucose to ethanol and carbon dioxide - live under anaerobic conditions. - can tolerate fairly high concentrations of alcohol (up to about 14-18%) in the medium.

anaerobic respiration is included in the process of fermentation. In this process‚ the glucose (C6H12O6) from the feedstock is broken down into two molecules of pyruvic acid through glycolysis. With the presence of yeast molecules from the yeast (Saccharomyces serevisicie)‚ the pyruvic acid is broken down into Carbon Dioxide (CO2) and Acetaldehyde. The acetaldehyde then acts as acceptor of the hydrogen which enables to produce a molecule of ethyl alcohol (C2H6O). This alcohol serves as a bio ethanol

The protozoan intestinal parasite Giardia lamblia lacks mitochondria and the ability to make haem yet encodes several putative haem-binding proteins‚ including three of the cytochrome b5 family. We cloned one of these (gCYTb5-I) and expressed it within Escherichia coli as a soluble holoprotein. UV-visible and resonance Raman spectra of gCYTb5-I resemble those of microsomal cytochrome b5‚ and homology modelling supports a structure in which a pair of invariant histidine residues act as axial
