RESUMO
Washed suspensions of the ruminal ciliates, Isotricha prostoma and Entodinium simplex, concentrated C14-labeled oleic, palmitic, stearic, and linoleic acids within the cells during short incubation periods. Radioautographs demonstrated that oleic acid-1-C14 was hydrogenated to stearic acid by I. prostoma, and Warburg manometric data showed that the sodium salts of oleic, valeric, caproic, and acetic acids, and methyl myristate, methyl laurate, and the triglyceride tributyrin stimulated fermentation of I. prostoma. The total lipid and free fatty acid contents of I. prostoma were determined.
