The enhanced solubility of hexadecane in the growth medium of hexadecane-grown Acinetobacter species has been related to the accumulation of an extracellular vesicular component. The partition of hexadecane was determined by measuring the amount of [3H]hexadecane bound to the vesicular particle. The vesicle was characterized as a phospholipid-rich, lipopolysaccharide-rich particle with a polypeptide composition similar to the outer membrane of Acinetobacter. The accumulation of an extracellular vesicular component that binds hexadecane in the form of a microemulsion represents another example of molecules produced by microorganisms in response to paraffinic substrates.
十六烷在以十六烷为生长底物的不动杆菌属物种的生长培养基中溶解度增强，这与一种细胞外囊泡成分的积累有关。通过测量与囊泡颗粒结合的[3H]十六烷的量来确定十六烷的分配情况。该囊泡被表征为富含磷脂、富含脂多糖的颗粒，其多肽组成与不动杆菌的外膜相似。以微乳液形式结合十六烷的细胞外囊泡成分的积累，代表了微生物针对链烷烃底物产生的分子的另一个例子。
