Abstract

SUMMARY

In a defined medium for Mycoplasma strain Y, a mixture of the diacetoxysuccinoyl esters of monoolein and monopalmitin replaced unesterified fatty acids and serum protein fractions, enabling the minimal growth requirements to be determined. Other Mycoplasma strains did not grow in media in which these esters replaced fatty acids and protein fractions.
