Effect of temperature and physiological state on the fatty acid composition of Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
The influence of temperature and physiological state on fatty acid profiles of cell membranes of a gram-negative bacteria was studied in this work. It has been shown that fatty acid composition is largely modified by these two parameters. Lipids play an important role in the composition and the function of cell membranes. These modifications of membrane structures are very important to understand because of their consequences on cell viability.
