Gram-negative, straight rods, 0.7-0.9 x 1.5-2.0 µm. Motile. Non-spore-forming.
Colonies are circular and white with entire edges. Able to grow at 16-41 ºC, but not at
42 ºC. Grows in 1-4% NaCl media; not in 8% NaCl. Aerobic.
42 ºC. Grows in 1-4% NaCl media; not in 8% NaCl. Aerobic.
Isolated from a biphenyl-contaminated site in Kitakyushu, Japan.
Can utilize monocyclic and bicyclic aromatic compounds such as biphenyl, 4-methyl biphenyl and benzoate as sole carbon and
energy sources. It is able to degrade polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) such as 4-chloro-, 2,3-, 3,4-, 2,4'-dichloro-, and 2,4,5- and
2,4,4'-trichlorobiphen.
