Gram-positive rods, 0.55 x 4.60 µm. Motile. Produce terminal, spherical endospores.
Colonies are 1-2 mm in diameter, cream, regular in shape with round edges. Growth
occurs at 30-70 ºC (optimum growth at 50 ºC), at pH range 6.0-11.0 (optimum pH is
7.5-8.5), can grow in the absence of NaCl (optimum growth at 1.5% NaCl); no growth
above 2.5% NaCl. Facultatively anaerobe.
