Positive results for catalase, creatinine hydrolysis, gelatin hydrolysis, nitrate reduction, xanthine hydrolysis, and acid production from
glycerol.
Can utilize 5-aminovalerate, D(+)-glucose, and glycerol.
Negative results for esculin hydrolysis, galactosidase, starch hydrolysis, urease, acid production from arabinose, galactose, inositol,
rhamnose, ribose, xylitol, or xylose.
No utilization of malonate, DL-glycerate, (–)-quinate, L-histidine, D-xylose, D-ribose, L-arabinose, D-galactose, lactose, L-rhamnose,
and D-xylitol.
