Positive results for acid and alkaline phosphatase, beta-galactosidase (negative in API
20 NE and APi ZYM), lysine decarboxylase and oxidase.
Positive for OF utilization of mannitol, lactose and xylose.
Can assimilate L-arabinose, adipate, caprate, citrate, glucose, gluconate, malate,
mannose, mannitol, N-acetylglucosamine and phenylacetate.

Negative results for arginine dihydrolase, gelatin hydrolysis, indole production and ornithine decarboxylase. No assimilation of maltose.

Variable results for esculin hydrolysis, nitrate reduction and urease.
