Positive for esculin hydrolysis and gelatin hydrolysis. Negative for nitrate reduction, indole production, glucose fermentation, arginine dihydrolase, urease, and β -galactosidase. Uses D-glucose, D-mannose, and D-maltose as a carbon source, but not L-arabinose, D-mannitol, N -acetyl-glucosamine, potassium gluconate, capric acid, adipic acid, malic acid, trisodium citrate, or phenyl-acetic acid.
