Pullularia pullulans was tested for its ability to utilize a series of n-alkanes for growth. It utilized hydrocarbons containing higher C-numbers (13, 14, 16, and 18) to a greater degree than those containing lower numbers; in addition, an induction phenomenon was noted. Gas-liquid and thin-layer chromatography of ether extracts of the growth media revealed that oleic and palmitic acids were formed from tridecane, tetradecane, hexadecane, and octadecane.
对出芽短梗霉利用一系列正构烷烃进行生长的能力进行了测试。与含较低碳原子数的烃类相比，它对含较高碳原子数（13、14、16和18）的烃类利用程度更高；此外，还观察到诱导现象。对生长培养基的乙醚提取物进行气液色谱和薄层色谱分析表明，油酸和棕榈酸是由十三烷、十四烷、十六烷和十八烷形成的。
