Despite the bactericidal effects of ethanol, acidifying effects of fermentation, and low oxygen conditions of industrial alcohol production, bacteria that undergo lactic acid fermentation can contaminate such facilities because lactic acid has a low pKa of 3.86 to avoid decoupling the pH membrane gradient that supports regulated transport.
Not only can fermentation produce alcohol, but it can also be a valuable preservation technique. Fermentation can also make foods more nutritious and palatable. Water was also turned into alcoholic beverages through fermentation. When water is used to make beer, the boiling during the brewing process may kill bacteria that could make people sick.
The alcohol can suck the water out of the bacteria. This is due to osmotic pressure. Graeme Bartlett 13:19, 26 May 2015 (UTC) Tonicity is also a good relevant reading. --Jayron 32 15:03, 26 May 2015 (UTC)
A study found that more than 20% of reusable water bottles contained coliform bacteria, or fecal matter. Here's the best way to clean that bottle and avoid harmful germs. Like many people, Carl ...

When finished, leave it upside down on a drying rack to dry completely—don’t put your bottles away wet. Avoid sharing water bottles with anyone else. “If it’s your saliva and just water ...
Alcohol inhalation is a method of administering alcohol directly into the respiratory system, with aid of a vaporizing or nebulizing device or bag. It is chiefly applied for recreational use, when it is also referred to as alcohol smoking, but it has medical applications for testing on laboratory rats, and treatment of pulmonary edema and viral pneumonia.
Huberman describes the effect of alcohol on the gut as a two-hit model: It kills the good bacteria in the gut and disrupts the lining of the gut—releasing bad bacteria into your bloodstream.
