Obligately heterofermentative (hexoses are fermented to lactic acid, acetic acid
(ethanol), and CO2 via the phosphogluconate pathway; pentoses are fermented to
lactic acid and acetic acid by the related pentose phosphate pathaway).
Positive results for esterase C4, alpha-galactosidase, beta-glucosidase fermentation of: L-arabinose, arabitol, arbutin, galactose,
gluconate, 2-ketogluconate, maltose, ribose, salicin, turanose, methyl-beta-D-xylopyranoside, and D-xylose.
Negative results for fermentation of: D-arabinose, esculin, fructose, N-acetylglucosamine, D-lyxose, methyl-alpha-D-glucopyranoside,
mannose, melezitose, raffinose, trehalose, and L-xylose. No reaction in litmus milk. No slime production from sucrose.
Variable results for cellobiose, melibiose and sucrose fermentation.
