sanitizers may be isopropanol, ethanol, n-propanol, or povidone-iodine.
Inactive ingredients in alcohol rubs typically include a thickening agent

and do not dry out hands as much.

Fermentation
Fermentation is a metabolic process converting sugar to acids, gases
and/or alcohol using yeast or bacteria. In its strictest sense, fermentation
is the absence of the electron transport chain and takes a reduced carbon
source, such as glucose, and makes products like lactic acid or acetate.
No oxidative phosphorylation is used, onl y substrate level phosphorylation,
w h i c h y i e l d s a m u c h l o w e r a m o u n t o f ATP. F e r m e n t a t i o n i s a l s o u s e d m u c h
more broadly to refer to the bulk growth of microorganisms on a growth
m e d i u m . T h e s c i e n c e o f f e r m e n t a t i o n i s k n o w n a s z ym o l o g y.
Fermentation has been used by humans for the production of food
and beverages since the Neolithic. The process is often used to produce

processing).
Fermentation is a form of anaerobic digestion that generates

Sugar
The most widel y used sugar for ethanol fermentation is blackstrap
molasses which contains about 35 40 wt% sucrose, 15 20 wt% invert
sugars such as glucose and fructose, and 28 35 wt% of non-sugar solids.
Blackstrap (syrup) is collected as a by-product of cane sugar manufacture.

the pH of the mash is adjusted to about 4 5 with mineral acid, it is
inoculated with the yeast, and the fermentation is carried out nona s e p t i c a l l y a t 2 0 3 2 C f o r a b o u t 1 3 d a ys . T h e f e r m e n t e d b e e r, w h i c h

Starches
All potable alcohol and most fermentation industrial alcohol is
currently made principally from grains. Fermentation of starch from grain is
somewhat more complex than fermentation of sugars because starch must
first be converted to sugar and then to ethanol. Starch is converted

b y fungal am ylase. The resulting dextrose is fermented to ethanol with the
aid of yeast producing CO 2 as co-product. A second co-product of

protein cattle feed) is also produced.
Cellulosic Materials
Each step in the process of the conversion of cellulose to ethanol
proceeded with 100% yield; almost two-thirds of the mass would disappear
during the sequence, most of it as carbon dioxide in the fermentation of
glucose to ethanol. This amount of carbon dioxide leads to a disposal

simple sugars destroys much of the sugars in the process.
Distillation
Distillation is the process of heating a liquid until it boils, then
condensing and collecting the resultant hot vapors. Mankind has applied
the principles of distillation for thousands of years. Distillation was
p r o b a b l y f i r s t u s e d b y a n c i e n t Ar a b c h e m i s t s t o i s o l a t e p e r f u m e s . Ves s e l s

3500 BC.

identify it. Distillation is used to purify a compound by separating it from a
non-volatile or less-volatile material. When different compounds in a
mixture have different boiling points, they separate into individual
components when the mixture is carefully distilled.

Cleaning
The stems and leaves of the Makabuhay plant should be washed to
avoid dirt from getting into the solution.
Extraction
The stems and leaves will be extracted by putting it on the cheese
cloth then will be pounded by the mortar and pestle to let the juice out.

Fermentation
Sterilized bottle will be covered with a black cloth and put in a bag
made of cheesecloth then will be kept in the dark room for twenty one (21)
days to protect from direct exposure to sunlight.
Distillation
The fermented solution had been used in the distillation process
which produced ethanol. When the solution reached its boiling point which
is 78 degree Celsius, the vapor would go through a condenser then a flask
collected the distillate which is alcohol.
Experimental Design
Each treatment was replicated three times using
Randomized Design or CRD. The treatment will be as follows:
