Positive results for alpha-galactosidase, alpha-glucosidase, beta-galactosidase, alpha-mannosidase, starch hydrolysis, acid
production from fructose, rhamnose and sucrose.
Can utilize raffinose as sole carbon source.
Negative results for acid and alkaline phosphatase, esculin hydrolysis, esterase lipase (C8), beta-glucuronidase, nitrate reduction,
pyrrolidonyl arylamidase, and urease.
No utilization of cellulose, fructose, glucose, myo-inositol, mannitol, nicotine, sucrose, and xylose.
Variable results for arabinose and rhamnose utilization.
