Mucor plumbeus FRI 0007 균주의 배양조건에 따른 균체생산량 및 지방질의 생산량을 검토한 결과 온도는 37$^{circ}C$, pH3.5에서 정치배양 하는 것이 최적조건이며, 25일간 배양했을때 균체량은 2.39g/50$mell$, 지방질의 함량은 50.73% 이었다. 균체량과 지방질의 함량은 온도가 증가할수록, pH가 낮을수록 증가하였으나 진탕배양의 경우 균체량은 감소하나 지방질의 함량은 증가되었다. 트리-글리세리드의 함량은 pH가 낮을때, 그리고 진탕배양을 했을때 그 함량이 높았다. 지방산의 조성은 온도, 질소원와 종류 및 진탕에 의한 영향을 받았으며 온도가 낮을때 그리고 진탕을 했을때 포화도가 낮았다. 지방질을 구성하고 있는 모노-글리세리드와 디-글리세리드는 팔미트산과 올레산으로 트리-글리세리드는 주로 팔미트산, 올레산 및 리놀레산으로 결합되어 있으며 포화도는 모노-글리세리드가 가장 높았다.
The cultural conditions of Mucor plumbeus FRI 0007 were investigated for the maximum production of felt and lipid. It was found that the lower the pH and the higher the incubation temperature, the higher accumulation of the felt and lipid. Shake culture rendered higher lipid accumulation and lower felt accumulation than static culture. Maximum production of felt and lipid content were 47.8 g/$ell$ and 50.73%, respectively, when the organisms were static-cultured at a temperature of 37$^{circ}C$ and pH of 3.5 for 25 days latroscan thinchrographic analysis showed that the higher amount of triglyceride was obtained when static-cultured at a low pH. Fatty acid composition of the microbial lipid was affected by the incubation temperature, types of nitrogen source and speed of agitation: lower degree of saturation was observed as the incubation temperature decreased and the speed of agitation increased. Fatty acids of monoglyceride and diglyceride were mainly palmitic and oleic acids and those of triglycerides were mainly palmitic, oleic acids.
