[Lipid composition of certain predatory species of fungi of the genus Arthrobotrys].

The aim of this work was to study the effect of the composition of the medium on the biosynthetic activity of fungi belonging to the genus Arthrobotrys, the content of different lipid fractions in them, and their fatty acid composition. The following fractions typical of the majority of microbial species were found in the lipid composition of these predaceous fungi: phospholipids, monoglycerides, diglycerides, sterols, free fatty acids, and triglycerides. The fungi were capable of accumulating from 2.
