Cellular fatty acid composition and ubiquinone content of Legionella feeleii sp. nov

Abstract
The cellular fatty acid composition of L. feeleii was determined by capillary gas-liquid chromatography and the ubiquinone content was determined by reverse-phase high-pressure liquid chromatography. As in other Legionella spp., this new species is characterized by relatively large amounts of branched-chain fatty acids and by major amounts of ubiquinones with > 10 isoprene units in the side chain.
