Colonies on MRS agar are white, smooth, and 2 mm in diameter after incubation for
3-4 days at 30 ºC. Facultatively anaerobic. Can grow at 15 and 45 ºC, but not at 10 or

Obligately homofermentative.
Positive results for fermentation of: D-fructose, galactose, D-glucose (lactic acid is produced as the main end product, no gas
production), mannitol, D-mannose, melibiose, salicin, sorbitol, sucrose (dextran is produced), and trehalose.
Negative results for catalase, fermentation of: L-arabinose, cellobiose, gluconate, lactose, melezitose, rhamnose, starch, and
D-xylose.
Variable results for maltose and raffinose fermentation.
