| Abstract: | The fatty acid composition of the whole cell and cell wall ofAerobacter aerogenes was studied employing column and gas-chromatographic technique. The cell wall contained a greater percentage of total lipid, complex lipid, and free fatty acids compared to the whole cell. Palmitic acid and oleic acid were the most abundant fatty acids found in the free fatty acid and complex lipid fractions. A saturated C17 fatty acid and small quantities of a branched C16 and iso and anteiso C12 fatty acids were detected. The glyceride fractions of the whole cell and cell wall contained very few fatty acids. |
