“…Separation of the fermentation and the leaching process might give better results. Instead of mycelial fungi citric acid producing yeast strains of Candida (SPIEGELBERO 1976) or Saccharomycopsis (MARCHAL et al 1977) could be used, which also grow on n-alkanes (SOUW et al 1976). This has not yet been investigated, as far as we know.…”

Leaching of metals with carbon‐heterotrophic microorganisms and organic acids as active agents has been performed with Timna copper ore containing 1.1% copper as carbonates and silicate and with some other metal oxides. Aspergillus niger surface cultures on a 14% sucrose fermentation medium yielded 87.3% of total copper from a 10% suspension within 2 weeks of leaching. On sulfite liquor as an industrial waste product A. niger solubilized 73.8% Cu within 4 weeks. In percolators with 14% sucrose medium up to 1780 ppm copper were found in solution. In leaching experiments with a sea water medium containing 7% sucrose only 684 ppm Cu were soluble. Leaching with lactobacilli containing whey yielded 83.4% of the total copper in 4 weeks.

“…In a previous paper we reported on the oxidation and assimilation of n-tetradecane by two citric acid-producing Candida species (Souw et al, 1976). It was shown that the two strains were able to oxidize n-tetradecane not only monoterminally but also diterminally.…”

“…A number of reports indicate that selected n-alkanes can be incorporated into the cellular lipids of filamentous fungi after terminal oxidation of the substrate (4,8,11,12). Equivalent incorporation of substrate also occurs in yeasts (13,14,18,20). This direct incorporation of substrate into cellular fatty acids has been thoroughly examined in bacteria (5,6,(15)(16)(17).…”

The fatty acid compositions of two filamentous fungi (Cunninghamella elegans and Penicillium zonatum) and a yeast (Candida lipolytica) were determined after the organisms were grown on 1-chlorohexadecane or 1-chlorooctadecane. These organisms utilized the chlorinated alkanes as sole sources of carbon and energy. Analyses of the fatty acids present after growth on the chlorinated alkanes indicated that 60 to 70% of the total fatty acids in C. elegans were chlorinated. Approximately 50% of the fatty acids in C. lipolytica were also chlorinated. P. zonatum contained 20% 1-chlorohexadecanoic acid after growth on either substrate but did not
