Colonies are circular, convex, smooth, and pale-yellow colored after 4 days on R2 A at 25° C. Nitrate is reduced and esculin is hydrolyzed. The strain shows positive reactions for enzyme activities of urease, arginine dihydrolase, and β -galactosidase, whereas the strain shows negative reaction for enzyme activity of gelatinase. Indole is not produced and glucose is not fermented. The strain utilizes D-glucose, L-arabinose, D-mannose, D-mannitol, N -acetyl-glucosamine, D-maltose, potassium gluconate, malic acid, and trisodium citrate, whereas the strain does not utilize adipic acid, capric acid, and phenylacetic acid.
