Positive results for catalase & urease.
Negative results for casein hydrolysis, gelatin hydrolysis, nitrate reduction, oxidase,
tyrosine hydrolysis and Voges-Proskauer reaction.
Utilizes glucose, sucrose, xylose, trehalose and salicin as sole carbon sources, but not lactose, raffinose, D-arabinose, fructose,
mannose, maltose and L-tyrosine.
