found to suppress the synthesis of the cyclopropane-containing fatty acid dihydrosterculic acid (9,10-methyleneoctadecanoic acid) at micromolar concentrations in the growth medium, and all but the 9-thiastearate were found to inhibit the growth of the protozoa at concentrations. The most potent inhibitor, 8-thiastearic acid (I50 for growth = 0.8 microM; I50 dihydrosterculate synthesis = 0.4 microM), was
