Description of Aliarcobacter faecis 775

Cells are Gram­stain­negative, flagellated and rod shaped. Colonies are circular, convex, entire and beige colored on TSA medium supplemented with 0.5% yeast extract after 48 h incubation at 25℃. Cells reduce nitrate to nitrite and are positive for urease, alkaline phosphatase, leucine arylamidase, acid phosphatase, naphthol­AS­BI­phosphohydrolase (API 20NE/ZYM). Assimilate acetate, lactate, glycogen (API ID 32GN) and utilize D­fructose, pectin, galactonic lactone, D­gluconic acid, D­glucuronic acid, glucuronamide, mucic acid, methyl pyruvate, D­lactic acid, L­lactic acid and acetic acid as sole carbon sources (Biolog GEN III).

Strain 775 (= NIBRBAC000503087) was isolated from the gut of Leopard mandarin fish (Siniperca scherzeri) at Chungju, Chungcheongbuk Province, Korea. The DNA G + C content of the type strain is 27 mol %.
