Virulent Nocardia asteroides GUH-2 and avirulent N. asteroides 10905 contained 8.2% and 10.6% of diethyl ether soluble lipids (DESL) per dry cell mass, respectively. Intraperitoneal (i.p.) inoculation of 250/zg of DESL from GUH-2 dissolved in mineral oil was toxic to mice, resulting in weight loss a
