In order to investigate the lipid productivity of many species of fungi, 13 species (24 strains) of Deuteromycetes (Fungi Imperfecti), which were obtained from the Institute for Fermentation, Osaka, were examined. The lipids extracted from the cells grown in stationary cultures were separated into neutral and polar lipids by silicic acid column chromatography. The fatty acid composition of both lipid fractions was determined by GLC. The resolution of the individual neutral lipids (triglyceride, diglyceride, monoglyceride, sterol ester, sterol, and free fatty acid) and the individual polar lipids (phosphatidyl choline, phosphatidyl ethanolamine, phosphatidyl serine, phosphatidyl inositol, phosphatidyl glycerol, cardiolipin, lysophosphatidyl choline, and glycolipid containing phosphorus) was achieved by TLC, and the detailed composition of the cellular lipids of 13 species of Deuteromycetes was quantitatively determined. Penicillium lilacinurn was found to have large amounts of lipids in the cells cultivated at 30°C.
