Two types of fat emulsions have been studied in tissue culture of human HeLa and conjunctival cells. Soybean phosphatides or a synthetic material (Pluronic-F68) was used as the emulsifying agent. Cell multiplication was unaffected by the presence of Pluronic-stabilized emulsions and appeared to be somewhat decreased with a 2 per cent phosphatide-stabilized emulsion. Emulsions of glyceryl triolein-1-C14 and glyceryl tripalmitin-1-C14 were converted to C14O2 by both kinds of cells.
