Colonies grown on anaerobe basal agar are cream, circular, entire, and convex. Oxidase activity is negative. In the API 20A test, cells are positive for urease activity; and acidification of D- glucose, D- mannitol, D- lactose, sucrose, D- maltose, D- xylose, L- arabinose, D- mannose, D- melezitose, D- raffinose, and D- sorbitol, but negative for indole production; hydrolysis of aesculin and gelatin; and acidification of salicin, glycerol, D- cellobiose, D- rhamnose, and D- trehalose. Strain LPB0329 ( = NIBRBAC000503364) was isolated from an animal intestine sample (mouse) collected from Daejeon , Republic of Korea ( 36°23 ʹ 56.5 ʺ N , 127°23 ʹ 39.8 ʺ E ).
