ABSTRACT
The free lipids extracted from the bovine pathogen Streptococcus dysgalactiae when fractionated into phospholipids, di-and triglycerides, and free fatty acids yielded the following mean percentages: 52.4, 14.0, 8.6, and 25.0, respectively. The total free lipid extracted from S. dysgalactiae was 7.2% of dry cellular weight. The triglyceride fraction contained higher percentages of hexadecenoic, octadecanoic, and octadecenoic acids, but less lactobacillic acid (<1.0%) than found in any of the other lipid fractions, i.e., phospholipids, diglycerides, or free fatty acids.
