The lactic acid bacteria LAB comprise a clade of Gram positive , low Guanine G Cytosine C , acid tolerant, generally non sporulating, non respiring rod or cocci that are associated by their common metabolic and physiological characteristics. These bacteria , usually found in decomposing plants and lactic products, produce lactic acid as the major metabolic end product of carbohydrate fermentation. This trait has, throughout history, linked LAB with Fermentation food food fermentation s, as acidification inhibits the growth of spoilage agents. Proteinaceous bacteriocins are produced by several LAB strains and provide an additional hurdle for spoilage and pathogen ic microorganisms. Furthermore, lactic acid and other metabolic products contribute to the organoleptic and textural profile of a food item. The industrial importance of the LAB is further evinced by their generally recognized as safe GRAS status, due to their ubiquitous appearance in food and their contribution to the healthy microflora of human mucosal surfaces.

In the absence of blood bound oxygen and nutrients hypoperfusion , the body s cells burn glucose anaerobically for energy lactic acidosis , which in turn increases the blood s acidity metabolic acidosis .

Causes While the exact causes of mitochondrial toxicity are not known, research has shown that a certain group of anti viral drugs used to treat HIV, specifically nucleoside analog reverse transcriptase inhibitor s NRTIs , interfere with an enzyme needed in the production of mitochondria. ref http www.thebody.com pinf mitochondrial.html ref Symptoms The disruption of cell function that accompanies the condition can cause both mild and severe problems in people suffering from mitochondrial toxicity. The most commonly observed symptom is muscle weakness, or myopathy .

orphan date December 2008 Acute muscle soreness AMS is a term to describe muscle soreness felt during the muscle s use in an Physical exercise activity or shortly after its use generally no longer than an hour . It is not connected to its longer counterpart, Delayed onset muscle soreness , which can last up to 72 hours after muscle activity. Definition It is generally known to be caused by tears in the muscle fibers or fasica. Soreness can occur after trying a new muscle activity or exercise , exercising during or after a prolonged period of being sedentary little or no exercise or movement or a large change in your current exercise routine. Recovery AMS, in general, disappears quickly hence the term acute . To speed the Healing recovery period, one should stop the exercise or movement causing it. However, the soreness can last even after the muscle s cease activity and can remain for up to an hour. There are ways to quicken the recovery period and relieve the patient of the pain . This is achieved by the removal of all the adenosine triphosphate ATP derived hydrogen ions and so techniques to speed up the removal of these ions will shorten recovery time. Muscle soreness is often related to a build up of lactic acid, most people feel it for several days after straining the muscle. These techniques include Light aerobic exercise Stretching Massaging the affected area s or muscle s. Other theories A new theory has emerged as to the cause of AMS which states AMS is caused by ATP derived hydrogen ion s in the muscle s. This deprivation leads to a drop in pH and increase of acidosis levels within the muscles. This decrease of pH levels within the muscles is what causes the soreness which is perceived by the patient . Though AMS is now believed to be caused by ATP derived hydrogen ions, they may not be solely responsible. For instance, if other substances can drop the pH and increase acidosis in the muscles, then theoretically they can also contribute to AMS. References ht ... more details
