Description of Hyphobacterium vulgare CAU 1667

Cells are Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, flagellated and rod shaped. Colonies grown on marine agar are cream, circular, entire, convex, smooth and opaque. Oxidase activity is positive. In the API 20NE test, cells are positive for nitrate reduction, esculin hydrolysis, and assimilation of D- glucose, L- arabinose, D- mannose, D- mannitol, N -acetyl-glucosamine, D- maltose, potassium gluconate, adipic acid, malate and trisodium citrate; but negative for indole production, glucose fermentation, arginine dihydrolase, urease, gelatinase, β -galactosidase, and assimilation of capric acid and phenylacetic acid. Strain CAU 1667 (= NIBRBAC000508846) was isolated from sea sediment collected from Inchon, Republic of Korea (37°26 ʹ 01.9 ʺ N 126°24 ʹ 53.1 ʺ E) .
