Obligately homofermentative (hexoses are fermented almost exclusively to lactic acid
by the Embden-Meyerhof pathway; pentoses or gluconate are not fermented).
Positive results for fermentation of: amygdalin, esculin, D-fructose, beta-gentibiose, mannitol, D-mannose, methyl
alpha-D-glucopyranoside, N-acetylglucosamine (weak), salicin, sucrose, D-sorbitol, D-tagatose, turanose, trehalose, and D-xylose.
Negative results for catalase, nitrate reduction, fermentation of: L-arabinose, D-arabitol, lactose, maltose, methyl
alpha-D-mannopyranoside, melibiose, raffinose, ribose, L-rhamnose, L-sorbose, and starch.
Variable results for: cellobiose, galactose, gluconate, and melezitose.
