Cellular fatty acid composition of Francisella tularensis
Abstract
Several unusual fatty acids characterized strains of Francisella tularensis. Long-chain (C20-C26) acids and the hydroxy acids 2-hydroxy-decanoate, 3-hydroxy-hexadecanoate, and 3-hydroxy-octadecanoate appeared to be of special diagnostic value.
