Gram-positive rods, 1.0-1.1x 2.0-4.0 µm. Non-motile. Produce central ellipsoidal
endospores in unswollen sporangia.
endospores in unswollen sporangia.
Colonies on LB agar are circular, white and usually 3-7 mm in diameter after growth
for 2days at 30 ºC. Growth occurs at 8-44 ºC, at pH 6.0-9.0 and at NaCl concentrations
of 0-6.0% (w/v). Facultatively anaerobic.
