Gram-positive cells showing a rod-coccus life cycle. The cocci are 0.6 µm in diameter
while the rods are 0.4-0.6 x 1.0-2.0 µm in size. Non-motile. Spores are not produced.

Colonies are creamy white, translucent and circular with entire edge. Grows at 5-37 ºC;
optimum growth temperature is 25-30 ºC. Grows in 5% NaCl but not in 10% NaCl.
Grows at pH 6-10 (optimum pH 7-8). Aerobic.

Isolated during the screening of 4-chlorophenol-degrading bacteria from sewage flowing into Geumho River near the Daegu
industrial complex in Korea. It is able to grow with up to 100 p.p.m. 4-chlorophenol, removing it completely from the medium, and
resists at up to 200 p.p.m. 4-chlorophenol for 4 weeks.
