The data on preparation and application of microbial sterols are reviewed. The ways of optimization of ergosterol production are discussed. The microbiological techniques for obtaining other sterols are proposed based on using specific inhibitors and mutants. The data concerning chemical and biological transformation of yeast sterols to androstane hormones and D vitamins are presented.
