  • Title: [Fatty acid composition of the lipids in fungi of the genus Aspergillus developing on mineral media with different carbon sources].
    Author: Kolesnikova IG, Tolstikova GV.
    Journal: Mikrobiologiia; 1984; 53(6):938-41. PubMed ID: 6442390.
    Abstract:
    This work was aimed at studying the effect of different carbon sources in the composition of mineral media on the growth of fungi belonging to the Aspergillus genus and on the fatty acid composition of their lipids. A chemically-defined medium with glucose was shown to be optimal for the growth of 18 Aspergillus strains and for the synthesis of lipids by them. The fatty acid composition of lipids was studied when the fungi grew in media with different carbon sources. The lipids were shown to contain saturated and unsaturated fatty acids with the prevalence of oleic, linoleic and linolenic acids.
