RESUMO
Fatty acid fingerprints were determined gas chromatographically for Strepcococcus mutans NCTC 1082 which had been grown in batch brain heart infusion at a series of nine temperatures ranging from 29.0 to 40.0 degrees C. The major acids at all temperatures were n-palmitic and octadecenoic acids. Other acids detected at all temperatures included n-myristic, palmitoleic, n-stearic, and eicosenoic acids. An increase in temperature resulted in a decrease in the proportion of unsaturated to saturated fatty acids, indicating the importance of accurate temperature control in such gas-liquid chromatographic, chemotaxonomic studies.
