Red-orange Mycobacterium species (the rhodochrous group) were isolated from the water of the Arctic regions; they were described, and the structure of lipids and the assimilation of oil products of low temperatures were comparatively studied in the arctic water and soil Mycobacterium species. The composition of usual fatty and mycolic acids was studied in two strains growing in a medium with hexadecane. Palmitic acid prevailed among fatty acids in the both strains; mycolic acids were represented by the compounds C34:0 and C34:1 (Mycobacterium brevicale) and C32:0 and C:34:0 (Mycobacterium sp.). The presence of unsaturated mycolic acids in the cells correlated with their capability to assimilate hydrocarbons at low temperatures.
从北极地区的水中分离出了红橙色分枝杆菌属（红平红球菌群）；对其进行了描述，并对北极水和土壤中的分枝杆菌属的脂质结构以及低温下油类产品的同化作用进行了比较研究。在两种在含有十六烷的培养基中生长的菌株中研究了常见脂肪酸和分枝菌酸的组成。在两种菌株的脂肪酸中，棕榈酸占主导地位；分枝菌酸由化合物C34:0和C34:1（短分枝杆菌）以及C32:0和C34:0（分枝杆菌属）代表。细胞中不饱和分枝菌酸的存在与其在低温下同化碳氢化合物的能力相关。
