Positive results for acid production from gluconate, 5-ketogluconate (weak), inositol
(weak), maltose, and trehalose.
Assimilates maltotriose, maltose, citrate, lactate, succinate, D-gluconate, D-malate (weak), fructose, propionate (weak), cis-aconitate,
D-gluconate, putrescine (weak), L-aspartate, and D-alanine.
Negative results for DNAse, citrate utilization, esculin hydrolysis, lecithinase, acid production from ribose, and sorbitol.
No assimilation of inositol, D-glucosamine, histidine, ribose, and tyrosine.
