The fatty acid composition of a Vibrio alginolyticus associated with the alga Cladophora coelothrix. Identification of the novel 9-methyl-10-hexadecenoic acid

The fatty acid composition of a new strain of Vibrio alginolyticus, found in the alga Cladophora coelothrix, was studied. Among 38 different fatty acids, a new fatty acid, 9‐methyl‐10‐hexadecenoic acid and the unusual 11‐methyl‐12‐octadecenoic acid, were identified. Linear alkylbenzene fatty acids,...

Description
Summary:The fatty acid composition of a new strain of Vibrio alginolyticus, found in the alga Cladophora coelothrix, was studied. Among 38 different fatty acids, a new fatty acid, 9‐methyl‐10‐hexadecenoic acid and the unusual 11‐methyl‐12‐octadecenoic acid, were identified. Linear alkylbenzene fatty acids, such as 10‐phenyldecanoic acid, 12‐phenyldodecanoic acid and 14‐phenyltetradecanoic acid, were also found in V. alginolyticus. The alga contained 43% saturated fatty acids, and 28% C16–C20 polyunsaturated fatty acids of the n−3 and n−6 families.
