Descripción: In sharp contrast to the wealth of chemical knowledge of the nature of the lipids of mycobacteria (Anderson 1940, 1942, Siebert 1950) is the scarcity of facts available to indicate the routes by which fats are metabolized by these organisms. One of the most distinctive features of the Mycobacteriaceae is the ability to attack a wide range of fatty acids and this trait is found both in the highly virulent and in the saprophytic members.
