Gram-negative rods. Non-motile. Non-spore-forming.
Colonies on TSA incubated at 37 ºC for 24 hours are 2-3 mm in diameter, opaque,
circular and yellow. Grows on MacConkey agar. In TSB, grows at 45 ºC (optimum
37 ºC), but not at 5 ºC. No haemolysis is observed on sheep blood agar at 37 ºC.
Facultatively anaerobic.
