Gram-positive cells. Non-motile.
Colonies produce a yellow pigmentation on agar and other media (seems that type
strain gives only pale buff colonies on yeast extract-peptone agar when incubated in
the dark). When supplied with biotin, growth occurs in suitable mineral salts medium
with an ammonium salt or nitrate as nitrogen source and glucose as carbon and
energy source. Grows at 28-30 ºC and 0% (w/v) NaCl, but not in 10% NaCl. Nicotine
blue is not produced from nicotine. Can grow on MacConkey agar.

Description is based mostly on API 50 CH, API 20NE and API ZYM (bioMerieux)results.
Positive results for acid and alkaline phosphatase, catalase, DNase, esculin hydrolysis, elastase, alpha- and beta-glucosidase, beta-
galactosidase, naphthol-AS-BI-phosphohydrolase, N-acetyl-beta-glucosaminidase, oxidase, starch hydrolysis, trypsin, acid
production from D-arabinose, D-galactose, D-glucose, esculin and N-acetylglucosamine.
