In nature, it is most commonly found in the bites and stings of insects, namely ants and bees.It is this compound that causes most of the irritation that occurs immediately following an ant bite or a bee sting.ecause of its natural antibacterial properties, formic acid has achieved very high use as both an antibacterial preservative and pesticide. In this industry, it is most commonly used as a food additive, and is frequently added to animal feed and silage. When it is used in silage, it serves a dual function.
Lactic acid is a product of cell metabolism that can accumulate when cells lack sufficient oxygen (hypoxia) and must turn to a less efficient means of energy production, or when a condition causes excess production or impaired clearance of lactate. Depending on pH, it is sometimes present in the form of lactic acid. However, with the neutral pH maintained by the body, most lactic acid will be present in the blood as lactate. Lactic acidosis is most commonly caused by an inadequate amount of oxygen in cells and tissues (hypoxia).
