In the API 20NE system, positive for nitrate reduction, esculin hydrolysis, gelatin hydrolysis, and cytochrome oxidase; weakly positive for urease; but negative for indole production, glucose fermentation, arginine dihydrolase, and β -galactosidase. Capric acid and adipic acid are utilized as sole carbon sources; while D-glucose, L-arabinose, D-mannose, D-mannitol, N -acetyl-glucosamine, D-maltose, potassium gluconate, malic acid, trisodium citrate, and phenylacetic acid are not.
