In older infants or young children (age 3 months to 7 years), the most common microorganisms are S pneumoniae, N meningitidis, and H influenzae. Primary treatment is with either cefotaxime (50 mg/kg IV every 6 hours, up to 12 g/day) or ceftriaxone (75 mg/kg initially, then 50 mg/kg every 12 hours, up to 4 g/day).
1). In alcoholic fermentation, pyruvic acid is broken down into ethanol and carbon dioxide. Lactic acid from glycolysis produces a feeling of tiredness; the products of alcoholic fermentation have been used in baking and brewing for centuries.
Alcoholic fermentation is the result of anaerobic respiration by yeast. iv. Fermentation, the breakdown of carbohydrates to alcohol and CO2 - is not a total combustion. Yeast has only a limited tolerance for alcohol: when the alcohol content of the anaerobic environment reaches above 14%m the yeast organism dies. v. Yeast used for the preparation of products for consumption (beer and wine) is chiefly of the genus Saccharomyces.
