Colonies are circular, raised and white with entire margin. Growth temperature is
5-40 ºC, with optimum growth at 30 ºC (pH 10). NaCl is not required for its growth. The
NaCl concentration for growth is 0-6% (w/v), with optimum growth at 0-2% (pH 10, 30
C). The growth pH range is pH 7.0-10.5, optimum pH is 9.0-10.5. Facultatively
