Gram-negative rods with rounded ends, occuring as single units or in pairs.
Non-motile.
Non-motile.
Colonies on trypticase soy agar after 48h incubation at 28 ºC are round, 1 mm in
diameter, smooth, shiny, translucent, with entire margins and a white-creamy color.
Grows on MacConkey agar. Growth occurs at 15-28 ºC and at pH 6 in nutrient broth
(NB) at 28 ºC (the type strain did not grow in liquid NB medium). Grows aerobically
(anaerobic growth not tested).
