AEROMONAS AQUATICA
| Class: | Gamma Proteobacteria |
| Genus: | Aeromonas |
| Species: | Aeromonas aquatica |
| Description: | Cells are motile Gram-negative rods, non-encapsulated and non spore forming, 1.2–1.9 μm long and 0.4–0.7 μm wide with a polar flagella of 9.8–12.7 nm wide. The 2 strains (AE235 T , HE157) are cytochrome oxidase positive, reduce nitrates to nitrites, are positive for glucose oxidation and fermentation, are resistant to the vibriostatic agent O/129 (150 G) and grow at 0% NaCl but not at 6% NaCl. No brown diffusible pigment is observed on TSA and both strains are able to grow on Thiosulfate-citrate-bile salts-sucrose agar (TCBS) and on McConkey agar fermenting lactose. |
