Arthrobacter histidinolovoranss Adams 1954.
Non-motile cells.
Colonies on yeast extract-peptone media show no pigmentation. Growth occurs in a
suitable mineral salts medium supplemented with biotin and with an ammonium salt
as sole nitrogen source and glucose as  sole carbon and energy source. Optimum
growth temperature is 28-30 ºC. No growth in the presence of 10% NaCl. Nicotine
blue is not produced from nicotine. Utilizes L-histidinol as major source of carbon and
energy and nitrogen when grown  in mineral salts medium containing a low
concentration of yeast extract.
Isolated from soil.
Undetermined.
