Description of Carnobacterium maltaromaticum HYN 0064

Cells are Gram-reaction-positive, non-flagellated, rod-shaped and approximately 0.5 × 1.6 μm in size. Colonies are convex, circular, and pale white colored after 2 days of incubation on anaerobe basal agar at 30°C. Cells are strict anaerobes. Possesses catalase (weak reaction), but not urease. Does not produce indole from L-tryptophan. Hydrolyzes esculin, but not gelatin. Produces acids from D-glucose, D-saccharose, D-maltose, salicin, D-cellobiose, D-mannose, and D-trehalose, weakly from D-mannitol, D-lactose, glycerol, and D-sorbitol, but not from D-xylose, L-arabinose, D-melezitose, D-raffinose, or L-rhamnose. Strain HYN0064 (KBA_24) was isolated from the underwater sediment of Jodaeneub Marshy Land, Korea.
