When the mutagen tester bacterial strain Salmonella typhimurium TA 98 was grown at different temperatures, we found that the unsaturated fatty acid composition increased at the lower growth temperatures. Membrane microviscosity, as assessed with spin-probe fatty acids using electron spin resonance,
1. Two mutants of Salmonella typhimurium LT2, strains SM64 and SM166, unable to use succinate, fumarate, or malate as carbon sources for growth, were isolated by treatment with N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine. 2. Mutant cells, induced aerobically in any of the Ca~dicarboxylic acids, presented
