Abstract

A variety of useful compounds, such as amino acids, organic acids, carbohydrates, nucleotides, vitamins and coenzymes, antibiotics and biomass etc., can be produced by microbial processes utilizing alkanes as substrates.

These products are classified into three groups. The Group 1 involves compounds which can be easily produced by conventional processes utilizing carbohydrates. The Group 2 contains products, whose formation is significantly favoured by physiological and metabolic features of alkane-utilizers. The Group 3 consists of products, which have structures closely related to alkane substrates and can be specifically produced in alkane media. At present these compounds are rarely produced from alkanes on industrial scales. However, production of compounds belonging to Group 2 and 3 is not only of academic interest but also of commercial importance even if the price of alkanes will be further elevated.
