Les cultures de levure thermotolérantes (supportant des températures allant jusqu'à 60°C) sur n-alcanes n'ont pas de grandes vitesses de croissance, néanmoins le rendement est bon; on estime que 100 t d'hydrocarbures donnent 50 t de protéines de levures. Cependant, l'Institut Français du Pétrole a abandonné en 1976 l'important programme de recherche entrepris dans ce domaine. 1, record 5, French, - culture%20de%20levure%20thermotol%C3%A9rante
