On the Fatty Acids of Brucella abortus and Brucella melitensis
European Journal of Biochemistry, 1969The main fatty acids of the lipids of Brucella abortus (strain Scherle II, or 1119) and of Brucella melitensis (strain M‐15) are palmitic acid, a C18 monoenoic acid an a C19 cyclopropane fatty acid. By chemical degradation, it is shown that the unsaturated C18 acid is cis‐vaccenic acid.
