Yeast Lipid Estimation by Enzymatic and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Methods

R S Moreton 1
PMCID: PMC203205  PMID: 16348062

Abstract

Low-resolution nuclear magnetic resonance and enzymatic glycerol estimation were compared with a solvent extraction method for estimating the intracellular lipid content of lipid-accumulating yeasts. Both methods correlated well with the solvent extraction procedure and were more convenient with large numbers of samples.
