Summary The ability to accumulate lipids was investigated in two strains of hydrogen oxidizing bacteria (Hydrogenomonas H 16 and strain 11/x). Along with the deposition of poly-β-hydroxybutyrate the amount of other lipids is shown to increase 1.8 times in strain H 16. It is suggested that the increase of the latter lipids is due to the formation of membrane lipids that are needed for the formation of membranes around the intracellular globules of poly-β-hydroxybutyrate. In strain 11/x the amount of lipids increases 7 times along with the storage of carbohydrates. In this case, the majority of lipids consists of triglycerides. It is suggested that there is a true storage of neutral fat in strain 11/x.
