Positive results for utilization of: Tween 40, Tween 80, methyl pyruvate,
succinic acid, pimelate, adipate, 4-aminobutyrate, azelate, citrate, glutarate, suberate,
beta-alanine, L-phenylalanine, L-tryptophan, 4-hydroxybenzoate and phenylacetate.
Acid is produced from glucose, but not from D-sucrose, D-mannitol, dulcitol, salicin, D-maltose, D-trehalose, methyl beta-D-xyloside
and m-erythritol.
Negative results for oxidase, gelatin hydrolysis, utilization of: m-inositol, lactulose, alpha-D-lactose, L-fucose, D-psicose, D-raffinose,
D-sorbitol, D-trehalose, turanose, xylitol, D-galacturonic acid lactone, D-glucosaminic acid, D-glucuronic acid, L-ornithine, D-serine,
L-serine, thymidine, L-alanyl glycine, glycyl-L-aspartic acid, glycyl-Lglutaric acid, inosine, uridine, thymidine, DL-alpha-glycerol
phosphate, glucose 1-phosphate, glucose 6-phosphate, cis-Aconitate, transaconitate, malonate, oxoisocaprate, L-arginine,
L-aspartate, DL-aspartate, L-glutamate, L-histidine, L-leucine, L-leucinamide and quinate.
