Fatty acid composition of oral isolates of Selenomonas. 1985

E Jantzen, and T Hofstad

Fatty acids of 16 strains of Selenomonas isolated from the human oral cavity were examined by gas-liquid chromatography. The strains showed similar patterns, characterized by the presence of straight-chain fatty acids in the range C11 to C18. Fatty acids of odd-numbered carbon atoms dominated and the major acids were n-pentadecanoate and 3-hydroxytridecanoate. The general fatty acid pattern of Selenomonas differed distinctly from those of other previously analysed anaerobic or microaerophilic Gram-negative bacilli.

D002849	Chromatography, Gas	Fractionation of a vaporized sample as a consequence of partition between a mobile gaseous phase and a stationary phase held in a column. Two types are gas-solid chromatography, where the fixed phase is a solid, and gas-liquid, in which the stationary phase is a nonvolatile liquid supported on an inert solid matrix.
