| Abstract: | A comparative investigation of the intracellular content of poly-beta-hydroxybutyric acid showed that Yersinia pseudotuberculosis strains accumulated, on the average, lower amounts of this reserve substance than Listeria monocytogenes strains. The intracellular pool of poly-beta-hydroxybutyric acid was responsible for the growth of the bacteria at low temperatures (4-6 degrees C) in the absence of any exogenous carbon and energy source. |
