The term '''fermentation''' is used in biology to describe the conversion of organic matter by bacteria, fungus, or other biological cell cultures. For producing [[pu-erh]] fermentation is used to make the tea ripe. For the production of [[oolong]] and [[black tea]] is only [[oxidation]] (formerly often wrongly called fermentation) used.
