    Liebig believed that fermentation was largely a process of decomposition as a consequence of the exposure of yeast to air and water. [4] This theory was corroborated by Liebig's observation that other decomposing matter, such as rotten plant and animal parts, interacted with sugar in a similar manner as yeast.
