Positive for indole production, glucose fermentation, arginine dihydrolase, and β-galactosidase, but negative for nitrate reduction, urease, esculin hydrolysis, and gelatin hydrolysis in API 20NE. D-Glucose, N -acetyl-glucosamine, D-maltose, potassium gluconate, capric acid, and malic acid are utilized. Does not utilize L-arabinose, D-mannose, D-mannitol, adipic acid, trisodium citrate, and phenylacetic acid. Strain MBB2-1 (= NIBRBA0000114150) has been isolated from air sample, air bladder of carp.
