From Azotobacter vinelandii strain AE-IV, six strains were separated by a routine method, and one strain, N-II-1-2,was selected which produced alginate in highest yield. The product was identified by ion exchange column, thin-layer and gas-liquid chromatographies and by IR spectrometry to be an O-acetylated alginate. The O-acetyl group was found almost exclusively in the alginate fragments rich in mannuronic acid residues obtained by the action of lyase from a mollusc, Dolabella auricula. Glucose, mannitol, maltose, fructose, sorbitol, sucrose, raffinose and glycerol were used as carbon source in investigating cell growth and alginate productivity. Fructose and sorbitol were excellent for the cell growth but very poor for the production of alginate, while the reverse was the case with glucose, mannitol and maltose. Sucrose gave good yields of both cell mass and alginate. The optimal concentration of phosphate for bacterial growth in Burk's medium was found to be around 5.0 mM.
