Fermentation: Anaerobic Harvesting of Energy $(6,13-6,14)$ Fermentation enables cells to produce ATP without oxygen. Under anaerobic conditions, muscle cells, yeasts, and certain bacteria produce ATP by glycolysis. NAD $^{+}$ is recycled from NADH as pyruvate is reduced to lactate (lactic acid fermentation) or alcohol and $\mathrm{CO}_{2}$ (alcohol fermentation).
