Abstract

Some varieties of aerobic or anaerobic microorganisms from the human stool and adipocere were separated and identified. These separated microorganisms together with other authentic ones produced 10-hydroxystearic acid from oleic acid. Some bacteria could convert oleic acid to 10-oxostearic acid as well as 10-hydroxystearic acid. These findings indicate that the microbial enzyme(s) catalyzes the hydration of oleic acid and probably the oxidation of this hydrated product. Aerobic bacteria as well as anaerobic microorganisms were found to be involved in the formation of adipocere.

摘要

从人类粪便和尸蜡中分离并鉴定出了一些需氧或厌氧微生物品种。这些分离出的微生物与其他正宗微生物一起，能将油酸转化为10-羟基硬脂酸。一些细菌还能将油酸转化为10-氧代硬脂酸以及10-羟基硬脂酸。这些发现表明，微生物酶催化了油酸的水合作用，可能还催化了这种水合产物的氧化。研究发现，需氧细菌以及厌氧微生物都参与了尸蜡的形成。
