not produced.
Colonies are whitish, glistening, convex, smooth, up to 4-5 mm in diameter after 72 h
of incubation on blood agar or nutrient agar. Obligately aerobic. Grows at: 15-37 ºC;
no growth at 5 or 42 ºC. Can grow in 5% NaCl, but not in 10% NaCl.

Some results are based on API Coryne tests (code 1042014).
Positive results for casein hydrolysis, catalase, DNA hydrolysis, esculin hydrolysis, gelatin hydrolysis, nitrate reduction (weak reaction),
tyrosine hydrolysis, starch hydrolysis, acid production from mannitol.
Negative results for acid phosphatase, beta-galactosidase, beta-glucuronidase, alpha-glucosidase, N-acetyl-beta-glucosaminidase,
lipase, pyrrolidonyl peptidase, urease, acid production from: L-arabinose, galactose, glucose, glycogen, inositol, lactose, maltose,
rhamnose, ribose, sucrose, trehalose and xylose.
