Sufficient oxygen in muscle cells of lactic acid may be oxidized

The significance of this process is needed reconstruction glycolysis nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD +) to maintain ATP synthesis. Sufficient oxygen in muscle cells of lactic acid can be oxidized to pyruvate, and then directly used as the citric acid cycle of the fuel. It can also gluconeogenesis in the liver through the process Calcium lactate cycle into glucose. Bacteria of the genus Lactobacillus can also be lactic acid fermentation. These bacteria can live in the mouth, they produce lactic acid is leading cause of dental caries. Lactic acid is often used in medicine in Ringer's lactate solution in. This is a human blood with isotonic sodium chloride, buffered lactic acid and a solution of lactic acid in distilled water. In injury, surgery or burns after blood loss often used to supplement the loss of blood lactate Ringer's solution.
