A method for the preparation of a fungal body and a lipid rich in gamma-linolenic acid therefrom

摘要: A very efficient microbiological method is proposed for the preparation of γ-linolenic acid or a lipid rich in content acid, one essential fatty acids diet mammals, e.g. human. The comprises culturing fungus Mortierella genus including isabellina, vinacea, ramanniana, ramanniana var. angulispora and nana culture medium containing carbohydrate, glucose, as carbon source an unusually high concentration 60 to 400 g/liter grow fungal body large amount acid. further improvement efficiency desired obtained by addition acetic alkali acetate medium.
