The production of curd from milk is a common example of the beneficial role of LAB (Lactic Acid Bacteria). When milk is exposed to LAB, such as Lactobacillus and other lactic acid bacteria, they grow and metabolize the milk components. During their growth, these bacteria produce lactic acid, which leads to the coagulation and partial digestion of the milk proteins.

Ethanol also known as ethyl alcohol, is commonly produced through the process of fermentation. Fermentation involves the conversion of sugars into alcohol and carbon dioxide by the action of microorganisms, typically yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) . Malted cereals and fruit juices are common sources of sugars used for ethanol production.
