Reseña del editor

Excerpt from On Fermentation, Vol. 20

Fermentation is only a particular instance, selected from among the chemical phenomena of which living organisms are the field it, like all biological reactions, comes before us as a manifestation of the special force residing in these organisms, or rather in their cellular elements.

If we leave the nature of the fermenting body, and the products derived from it, in the background, there is nothing to distinguish fermentation from the other chemical transformations which take place in the animal or vegetable economy.
