Fatty Acid Profiling of Microbial Biomass

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Two ml cultivation medium was pelleted, washed with ddH2O, and lyophilized. Lyophilization was carried out for 2 days at − 80 °C and 0.04 mbar (VaCo 5, Zirbus Technology, Germany). Fatty acid analysis was done according to the modified protocol of Griffiths et al. [69 (link)]. Glyceryl trinonadecanoate (C19:0-TAG, 0.2 mg/mL in GC grade toluol) was added prior to the reaction as an internal standard. The dried biomass was directly converted into fatty acid methyl esters (FAME) by simultaneous extraction and transesterification of yeast lipids using 0.5 M Sodium methoxide solution in GC grade methanol and hydrogen chloride-methanol solution (Sigma, Germany) the fatty acid profiles were measured by a GC-2025 Plus gas chromatograph (Shimadzu, Japan) according to Woortman et al. [70 ].

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
