Gram-positive, rods (1.8 x 5.0 µm) occurring singly or in pairs. Nonspore-forming.
Nonmotile.
Nonmotile.
After anaerobic growth at 30 ºC for 48 h, colonies on MRS agar are 1 mm in diameter,
round with rough surfaces. Grow at 15 and 37 ºC, but not at 45 ºC. Variable growth in
10% NaCl. Can grow in pH 4.0, but not in pH 2.6. Facultatively anaerobic.
