The chemical reactions and pathways involving lactate, the anion of lactic acid. The anaerobic enzymatic chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the breakdown of glucose to lactate, via pyruvate, yielding energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Fermentation that includes the anaerobic conversion of glucose to pyruvate via the glycolytic pathway. The anaerobic enzymatic conversion of organic compounds, especially carbohydrates, to other compounds, especially to ethyl alcohol, yielding energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). The anaerobic enzymatic chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the breakdown of glucose to lactate, and possibly ethanol, yielding energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the breakdown of glucose, the aldohexose gluco-hexose. The chemical reactions and pathways involving glucose, the aldohexose gluco-hexose. D-glucose is dextrorotatory and is sometimes known as dextrose; it is an important source of energy for living organisms and is found free as well as combined in homo- and hetero-oligosaccharides and polysaccharides.
