Gram-positive rods, 1.2-1.6 x 2.5-3.2 µm. Motile by peritrichous flagella. Produce
central, elliptical endospores. Sporangia are not deformed (admin note).
central, elliptical endospores. Sporangia are not deformed (admin note).
Colonies on LB medium are milk white, circular, nontranslucent and 2-3 mm in
diameter after incubation at 32 ºC for 48 h. Growth occurs at 10-39 ºC (optimum 30
ºC), at pH 5-9 (optimum pH 7) and with 0-9% (w/v) NaCl (optimum 0%). Facultatively
anaerobic.
