Gram-positive rods, 0.7 x 3.0 µm, occur singly or in pairs. Non-spore-forming.
Non-motile.
Non-motile.
Colonies on MRS agar are white, smooth, convex, 0.2-0.8 mm in diameter, after 72 h
at 30 ºC under anaerobic conditions. Facultative anaerobe. Grows at temperature
range 10-37 ºC (optimally at 30 ºC), pH range 3.5-8.0 and in 4.0-6.5% NaCl.
