Gram-positive, straight to slightly curved or ellipsoidal, pleomorphic rods or with
club-shaped swellings, 0.8-1.2 x 1.0-5 µm, occurring in angles or palisade.
Non-motile. Capsule is not formed. Spores are not produced.

Non-motile. Capsule is not formed. Spores are not produced.
Colonies are circular, flat, smooth, with entire margins, slightly glistening and
opaque, 3-4 mm in diameter; creamy white in young cultures to pale yellow in old
cultures. A water soluble, pale yellowish brown pigment is produced. Non-haemolytic.
Optimal growth at 27-35 ºC and pH 7-8. Aerobic to facultatively anaerobic. Uric acid is
oxidized.

Positive results for casein hydrolysis, citrate utilization, gelatin hydrolysis, H2S production, nitrate reduction, pyrazinamidase, urease,
and xanthine hydrolysis. Can assimilate or utilize N-acetylglucosamine, 5-aminovalerate, glyoxylate, L-leucine, L-xylose, and uric acid.
Negative results for cellulose decomposition, indole production, starch hydrolysis, Voges–Proskauer test. Acid is not produced from
sugars (mannitol, maltose or saccharose may be fermented in API Coryne kit - uncertain data - admin note).
No assimilation of amygdalin, arbutin, cellobiose, D-arabitol, D-mannose, D-turanose, D-xylose, galactose, glycerol, inositol, L-
arabinose, maltose, mannitol, melibiose, salicin, sucrose, trehalose, xylitol, beta-gentiobiose, and 5-ketogluconate.
