TLDR
Branched-chain fatty acids of the iso and anteiso series occur in many bacteria as the major acyl constituents of membrane lipids and are an important criterion used to aid identification and classification of bacteria.About:

Untargeted metabolomics of the bacterial tongue coating of intra-oral halitosis patients.
TL;DR: Novel metabolomic findings provide insights into the formation of the tongue coating and the production of H2S, which causes bad breath, in IOH patients.

Effects of growth medium, incubation temperature, and mycelium age on production of five major fatty acids by six species of Phytophthora
TL;DR: The effects of growth medium, incubation temperature, and mycelium age on the production of five major fatty acids by five isolates each of P. cactorum, citricola, P. citrophthora, cinnamomi, cryptogea, and P. nicotianae were investigated.

Molecular Dynamics and Metadynamics Insights of 1,4-Dioxane-Induced Structural Changes of Biomembrane Models.
TL;DR: The effect of 1,4-dioxane on phospholipid membrane models composed by DPPC and its branched isomer was investigated using MD simulations and the penetration mechanism has been described in detail based on the orientational preference of dioxane molecules and the free energy profiles.

Phosphate-free ornithine lipid contents in Desulfovibrio spp. respond to growth temperature
TL;DR: In this article, eight sulfate-reducing Desulfovibrio strains isolated from intertidal sediments of the North Sea were investigated for their intact polar lipid (IPL) composition.

Fatty acid and polar lipid composition in the classification of Cellulomonas, Oerskovia and related taxa
TL;DR: Two-dimensional thin-layer chromatography showed that almost identical and very characteristic polar lipid patterns were given by all the organisms under study: the only major components were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosph atidylinositol and two phospho-glycolipids chromatographing similarly to, but distinguishable from, the mono- and diacyl phosphatidolinositols characteristic of Nocardia and other actinomycetes.
