Fermentation, a metabolic process driven by microorganisms, has been harnessed for centuries to produce various foods, beverages, and pharmaceuticals. Microorganisms, such as bacteria, yeast, and fungi, play a crucial role in converting sugars into alcohol, acids, and gases through their enzymatic activities. These microorganisms not only produce the desired end products but also contribute to the flavor, texture, and nutritional value of the fermented products. Moreover, they enable the preservation of perishable materials, improve bioavailability of nutrients, and create new bioactive compounds. This abstract highlights the significance of microorganisms in fermentation processes, their diverse applications, and their potential for future innovations in sustainable production, food security, and human health.
