FERMENT

n.[L. fermentum, from fervo, to boil. See Fervent. ] 1. A gentle boiling; or the internal motion of the constituent parts of a fluid.
[In this sense it is rarely used. See Fermentation. ]
2. Intestine motion; heat; tumult; agitation; as, to put the passions in a ferment; the state of people are in a ferment.
Subdue and cool the ferment of desire.
3. That which causes fermentation, as yeast, barm, or fermenting beer.

 

FERMENT

v.t.[L. fermento. ] To set in motion; to excite internal motion; to heat; to raise by intestine motion.
While youth ferments the blood.

 

FERMENT

v.i.To work; to effervesce; to be in motion, or to be excited into sensible internal motion, as the constituent particles of an animal or vegetable fluid. To the vinous fermentation we apply the term, work. We say that new cider, beer or wine ferments or works. But work is not applied to the other kinds of fermentation.

 

FERMENTABLE

a.Capable of fermentation; thus, cider, beer of all kinds, wine, and other vegetable liquors, are fermentable.

 

FERMENTATION

n.[L. fermentatio.] The sensible internal motion of the constituent particles of animal and vegetable substances, occasioned by a certain degree of heat and moisture, and accompanied by an extrication of gas and heat. Fermentation is followed by a change of properties in the substances fermented, arising from new combinations of their principles. It may be defined, in its most general sense, any spontaneous change which takes place in animal or vegetable substances, after life has ceased. It is of three kinds, vinous, acetous, and putrefactive. The term is also applied to other processes, as the panary fermentation, or the raising of bread; but it is limited, by some authors, to the vinous and acetous fermentations, which terminate in the production of alcohol or vinegar. Fermentation differs from effervescence. The former is confined to animal and vegetable substances; the latter is applicable to mineral substances. The former is spontaneous; the latter produced by the mixture of bodies.

 

FERMENTATIVE

a. 1. Causing or having power to cause fermentation; as fermentative heat.
2. Consisting in fermentation; as fermentative process.

 

FERMENTATIVENESS

n.The state of being fermentative.

 

FERMENTED

pp. Worked; having undergone the process of fermentation.

 

FERMENTING

ppr. Working; effervesing.

 

Webster's 1913 Dictionary

FERMENT

Fer "ment, n. Etym: [L. fermentum ferment (in senses 1 & 2 ), perh. for fervimentum, fr. fervere to be boiling hot, boil, ferment: cf. F. ferment. Cf. 1st Barm, Fervent. ]

 

1. That which causes fermentation, as yeast, barm, or fermenting beer.

 

Note: Ferments are of two kinds: (a ) Formed or organized ferments. (b ) Unorganized or structureless ferments. The latter are also called soluble or chemical ferments, and enzymes. Ferments of the first class are as a rule simple microscopic vegetable organisms, and the fermentations which they engender are due to their growth and development; as, the acetic ferment, the butyric ferment, etc. See Fermentation. Ferments of the second class, on the other hand, are chemical substances, as a rule soluble in glycerin and precipitated by alcohol. In action they are catalytic and, mainly, hydrolytic. Good examples are pepsin of the dastric juice, ptyalin of the salvia, and disease of malt. globular proteins, capable of catalyzing a wide variety of chemical reactions, not merely hydrolytic. The full set of enzymes causing production of ethyl alcohol from sugar has been identified and individually purified and studied. See enzyme

 

2. Intestine motion; heat; tumult; agitation. Subdue and cool the ferment of desire. Rogers. the nation is in a ferment. Walpole. in a ferment in a state of agitation, applied to human groups.

 

3. A gentle internal motion of the constituent parts of a fluid; fermentation. [R.] Down to the lowest lees the ferment ran. Thomson. ferment oils, volatile oils produced by the fermentation of plants,and not originally contained in them. These were the quintessences of the alchenists. Ure.

FERMENTATION

Fer `men *ta "tion, n. Etym: [Cf. F. fermentation. ]

 

1. The process of undergoing an effervescent change, as by the action of yeast; in a wider sense (Physiol. Chem. ), the transformation of an organic substance into new compounds by the action of a ferment, either formed or unorganized. It differs in kind according to the nature of the ferment which causes it.

 

2. A state of agitation or excitement, as of the intellect or the feelings. It puts the soul to fermentation and activity. Jer. Taylor. A univesal fermentation of human thought and faith. C. Kingsley.Acetous, or Acetic, fermentation, a form of oxidation in which alcohol is converted into vinegar or acetic acid by the agency of a specific fungus or ferment (Mycoderma aceti ). The process involves two distinct reactions, in which the oxygen of the air is essential. An intermediate product, aldehyde, is formed in the first process. 1. C2H6O + O = H2O + C2H4O

 

Note: Alcohol. Water. Aldehyde. 2. C2H4O + O = C2H4O2

 

Note: Aldehyde. Acetic acid. -- Alcoholic fermentation, the fermentation which saccharine bodies undergo when brought in contact with the yeast plant or Torula. The sugar is converted, either directly or indirectly, into alcohol and carbonic acid, the rate of action being dependent on the rapidity with which the Torulæ develop. -- Ammoniacal fermentation, the conversion of the urea of the urine into ammonium carbonate, through the growth of the special urea ferment. CON2H4 + 2H2O = (NH4 )2CO3

 

Note: Urea. Water. Ammonium carbonate.

 

Note: Whenever urine is exposed to the air in open vessels for several days it undergoes this alkaline fermentation. -- Butyric fermentation, the decomposition of various forms of organic matter, through the agency of a peculiar worm-shaped vibrio, with formation of more or less butyric acid. It is one of the many forms of fermentation that collectively constitute putrefaction. See Lactic fermentation. -- Fermentation by an unorganized ferment or enzyme. Fermentations of this class are purely chemical reactions, in which the ferment acts as a simple catalytic agent. Of this nature are the decomposition or inversion of cane sugar into levulose and dextrose by boiling with dilute acids, the conversion of starch into dextrin and sugar by similar treatment, the conversion of starch into like products by the action of diastase of malt or ptyalin of saliva, the conversion of albuminous food into peptones and other like products by the action of pepsin-hydrochloric acid of the gastric juice or by the ferment of the pancreatic juice. -- Fermentation theory of disease (Biol. & Med. ), the theory that most if not all, infectious or zymotic disease are caused by the introduction into the organism of the living germs of ferments, or ferments already developed (organized ferments ), by which processes of fermentation are set up injurious to health. See Germ theory. -- Glycerin fermentation, the fermentation which occurs on mixing a dilute solution of glycerin with a peculiar species of schizomycetes and some carbonate of lime, and other matter favorable to the growth of the plant, the glycerin being changed into butyric acid, caproic acid, butyl, and ethyl alcohol. With another form of bacterium (Bacillus subtilis ) ethyl alcohol and butyric acid are mainly formed. -- Lactic fermentation, the transformation of milk sugar or other saccharine body into lactic acid, as in the souring of milk, through the agency of a special bacterium (Bacterium lactis of Lister ). In this change the milk sugar, before assuming the form of lactic acid, presumably passes through the stage of glucose. C12H22O11.H2O = 4C3H6O3

 

Note: Hydrated milk sugar. Lactic acid.

 

Note: In the lactic fermentation of dextrose or glucose, the lactic acid which is formed is very prone to undergo butyric fermentation after the manner indicated in the following equation: 2C3H6O3 (lactic acid ) = C4H8O2 (butyric acid ) + 2CO2 (carbonic acid ) + 2H2 (hydrogen gas ). -- Putrefactive fermentation. See Putrefaction.

 

FERMENTATION THEORY

FERMENTATION THEORY Fer `men *ta "tion the "o *ry. (Med. )

 

Defn: The theory which likens the course of certain diseases (esp. infectious diseases ) to the process of fermentation, and attributes them to the organized ferments in the body. It does not differ materially from the accepted germ theory (which see ).

 

FERMENTATIVE

Fer *ment "a *tive, a. Etym: [Cf. F. fermentatif.]

 

Defn: Causing, or having power to cause, fermentation; produced by fermentation; fermenting; as, a fermentative process. -- Fer *ment "a *tive *ly, adv. -- Fer *ment "a *tive *ness, n.

 

FERMERERE

Fer "mer *ere, n. Etym: [OF. enfermerier, fr. enfermerie infirmary. See Infirmary. ]

 

Defn: The officer in a religious house who had the care of the infirmary. [Obs. ]

 

FERMETURE

FERMETURE Fer "me *ture, n. [F., fr. fermer to close. ] (Mil. )

 

Defn: The mechanism for closing the breech of a breech-loading firearm, in artillery consisting principally of the breechblock, obturator, and carrier ring.
