โฆ Synopsis
The production of gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) by h41rcor circimlloides CBS 203.28 and MI rot/xii CBS 416.77 in fed-batch cultures operated in pH-stat mode with acetic acid as carbon substrate and titrant compared favourably with the performance of A4. circille//oides in batch culture on glucose. On acetic acid A4. circimlloides accumulated up to 39.8 mg GLA/g biomass, with a crude oil content of 28% containing 91% neutral lipids. The GLA content of the neutral lipid fraction was 15.6%.

The Fischer-Tropsch reaction water, which contains C2 to C5 monocarboxylic acids, generated as a co-product of the Sasol industrial oil-from-coal process, constitutes a potential cheap carbon substrate for the production of gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) by selced Mucor species. Three strains of Mucor w
