A strain of Nocardia and one of Pseudomonas, both isolated on pristane (2,6,10,14-tetramethylpentadecane), gave cell yields of approximately 100% on n-octadecane and pristane. Both organisms grew more rapidly on the n-octadecane than on the pristane. A mixed culture, isolated on 3-methylheptane, whose two components were identified as species of Pseudomonas and of Nocardia, gave approximately 100% cell yields and grew with generation times of about 5 hr on n-heptane, n-octane, and 2-methylheptane. The generation time on 3-methylheptane was 8.6 hr and the cell yield was only 79%. A strain of Pseudomonas isolated from naphthalene enrichments and one from phenanthrene enrichments both gave a cell yield of 50% on naphthalene. The phenanthrene isolate gave a cell yield of 40% on phenanthrene. A Nocardia species isolated on benzene gave a 79% cell yield on benzene. The generation times of the bacteria isolated on aromatic hydrocarbons were related to the solubility of the aromatic hydrocarbons on which they were grown; the more insoluble hydrocarbons gave slower growth.
从姥鲛烷（2,6,10,14 - 四甲基十五烷）中分离出的一株诺卡氏菌和一株假单胞菌，在正十八烷和姥鲛烷上的细胞产量约为100%。两种微生物在正十八烷上的生长速度都比在姥鲛烷上快。在3 - 甲基庚烷上分离出的混合培养物，其两个组分被鉴定为假单胞菌属和诺卡氏菌属的物种，在正庚烷、正辛烷和2 - 甲基庚烷上的细胞产量约为100%，生长世代时间约为5小时。在3 - 甲基庚烷上的世代时间为8.6小时，细胞产量仅为79%。从萘富集物中分离出的一株假单胞菌和从菲富集物中分离出的一株假单胞菌在萘上的细胞产量均为50%。菲分离株在菲上的细胞产量为40%。在苯上分离出的一株诺卡氏菌在苯上的细胞产量为79%。在芳香烃上分离出的细菌的世代时间与它们生长所用芳香烃的溶解度有关；溶解度越低的烃类，生长越慢。
