title: [Fractional makeup of the lipids of some yeast species].
abstract: The fractional composition of lipids was studied in 32 yeast strains belonging to the genera of Rhodotorula Harrison, Lipomyces Lodder et Kreger van Rij and Cryptococcus Kutz. The effect of C/N ratio in the growth medium on the content of various lipid fractions was studied. Lipids of the most studied cultures were found to contain di- and triglycerides, waxes, free fatty acids, sterines, their esters, and phospholipids. The fraction of monoglycerides was also detected in Rhodotorula and three species of Cryptococcus, but not in Lipomyces and Cr. laurentii. If C/N ratio equals 10, the predominant lipid component in Lipomyces is triglycerides, and in Rhodoturula and Cryptococcus phospholipids. The fraction of triglycerides prevailed in all cultures at C/N ratio of 100. The content of phospholipids decreased with an increase of C/N ratio in the medium from 10 to 100.
