Popis:	When a trace amount of linolenyl alcohol (cis,cis,cis-9,12,15-octadecatriene-1-ol) was added to the culture media ofClostridium butyricum, the polyunsaturated alcohol was readily assimilated. After an initial 18-hr exposure interval, there was a large increase in the amount and a change in the composition of thelong-chain alcohols present. However, this alteration was temporary. As the duration of the exposure interval increased, the alcohol content and composition of the treated bacteria returned toward control values. This return of the long-chain alcohol composition toward control values was associated with an increase in the proportion of linolenic acid in the phospholipid fraction. The ether moiety of the alk-1-enyl phosphoglycerides was unchanged in amount or composition upon exposure to linolenyl alcohol.
