THE LIPIDS IN COLPIDIUM CAMPYLUM

CHARLES G. WILBER 1 and GERALD R. SEAMAN 1

1 Biological Laboratory, Fordham University, New York

1. Colpidium campylum was established in sterile culture and grown in fat-free proteose-peptone solution.

2. The colpidia and the culture fluid in which they were grown were analyzed for fatty acid, cholesterol, and phospholipid.

3. No cholesterol was found. Large amounts of fatty acid were found in the organisms and in the ambient culture fluid. Phospholipid was found in the colpidia and in the culture fluid. There was more lipid in the culture fluid than in the organisms.

4. It is concluded that Colpidium synthesizes lipid from protein.
