Full stops, middle dots "·", or even dots aligned with the top of the font were variably used in the original as decimal points, and also for denoting chemical bonding. These have been rendered as middle dots herein. Tables and formulas have been edited for clarity and readability, while honoring the original form. In particular, some tables and chemical equations were made more compact to control line length. The reference to Colin's paper on page 5 has been changed from 1826 to 1825, to agree with the corresponding entry in the Bibliography. The reference to Turpin's paper on page 8 was changed to 1838 from 1839, for the same reason. On page 93, the complex reaction system has been revised into four simple reactions. The unbalanced original equations have been retained. Similarly on page 94, the original large diagram was converted into four simple reactions. The incorrect formula for the enol II. in the equation for glucose dehydration near bottom of page 101 was corrected. Equations (1) on page 108 showing production of glyceric acid from glyceraldehyde have been simplified and clarified. End of the Project Gutenberg EBook of Alcoholic Fermentation, by Arthur Harden
