2-Bromododecane was used as growth substrate to investigate the fatty acid composition of cellular lipids of Rhodococcus rhodochrous NCIMB 13064 grown on various long-chain haloalkanes. It was used to compare the in vitro methods:yeast resazurin and 3-[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide assay for determining the acute toxicity of halogenated alkanes.
