• Screening was carried out for strains which utilized acetic acid as a sole carbon source and produced large amounts of ubiquinone Q-10 aerobically, and the production of ubiquinone and bacteriochelorophyll a was investigated under different culture conditions. As a result, Rhodobacter sphaerodies TK 5117 and Rhodobacter sulfidophilus TK 5124 were selected on the basis of their ability to utilize acetic acid and their high ubiquinone Q-10 content. R. sphaerodies produced large amounts of ubiquinone Q-10 and bacteriochlorophyll a under dissolved oxygen-limiting culture conditions. While R. sulfidophilus TK 5124 produced similarly large amounts of these two substances independent of the concentration of dissolved oxygen. The contents of ubiquinone Q-10 and bacteriochlorophyll α in the cells of these two bacteria were almost the same-approximately 2.5 mg・g cell^<-1> of ubiquinone Q-10 and 4.0 mg・g cell^<-1> of bacteriochlorophyll α.
