On average, the SFA in cells growing on UDA+PDB
accounts for 63% of the total FFA during the exponential phase and 50% o f the total FFA
during the stationary phase. The SFA accounts for 75 % o f the total FFA during
exponential phase and 45 % during the stationary phase when cells were grown on UDA
alone. On average, when mixed species culture is grown on PDB, the intracellular SFA
account for 33% of all FFA during exponential and stationary phase. The concentration
of MUFA and PUFA ranged from 23% to 66% o f the total FFA, depending on substrate
type and growth stage. Contrary to MUFA and PUFA, the SFAs concentration decreased
from the exponential phase and to the stationary phase.
