β¦ Synopsis
Lipid production by
Penicilliurn lilacinurn in media containing various ratios of carbon and nitrogen has been studied. Factors affecting the lipid synthesis from diverse sources of carbon and nitrogen have been observed. Out of the nitrogen sources studied sodium nitrate produced 22.5"/0 fat. Sucrose proved to be a better source of carbon than xylose and maltose.The same yield of fat was obtained by replacing sucrose with molasses and sulphite waste liquor. Chemical examination of the fat reveals that it is composed of the ususally occurring fatty acid glycerides. Fett Wissenschaft 89.
