Paraburkholderia tuberum
Description is based mostly on API 20 NE and Biolog GN2 results.

Positive results for catalase, beta-galactosidase (PNPG) and oxidase.
Can utilize glucose, arabinose, mannose, mannitol, N-acetylglucosamine, gluconate, caprate, malate, phenylacetate, lactulose,
D-psicose and succinamic acid.

Negative results for arginine dihydrolase, esculin hydrolysis, alpha-fucosidase, gelatin hydrolysis, alpha- and beta-galactosidase,
beta-glucuronidase, alpha- and beta-glucosidase, N-acetyl-beta-glucosaminidase, alpha-mannosidase, nitrate reduction, indole
production, urease, valine arylamidase, cystine arylamidase, trypsin, alpha-chymotrypsin and acid production from glucose.
No utilization of adipate, citrate, maltose, dextrin, inosine, N-acetylgalactosamine, alpha-lactose, sucrose and trehalose.
