Abstract

The biosynthesis of geosmin and (1(10)E,5E)-germacradien-11-ol, two volatile terpenoid compounds emitted by the myxobacteria is investigated in feeding experiments. The volatiles released, in these experiments, by the cell cultures grown on agar plates are collected with a closed-loop stripping apparatus (CLSA).
