J. Sajbidor et al., EFFECT OF SALT STRESS ON FATTY-ACID ALTERATIONS IN SOME STRAINS OF DIPODASCOPSIS AND DIPODASCUS SPP, World journal of microbiology & biotechnology, 10(2), 1994, pp. 184-186
The effect of salt stress (8% w/v NaCl) on fatty acid composition of e
ight strains of Dipodascus and Dipodascopsis spp. varied from being of
slight influence only (Dipodascopsis uninucleata), to decreasing the
content of 18:2 (D. reesii, D. tetrasperma and D. australiensis) and t
o decreasing both 18:1 and 18:2 (D. tothii and D. aggregatus) with a c
oncomitant rise of 14:1 and 16:1. With the exception of D. aggregatus,
NaCl inhibited lipid accumulation in all strains. Only trace amounts
of fatty acids over C18 in chain length were found.
