SUCCINIMONAS AMYLOLYTICA
| Class: | Gamma Proteobacteria |
| Genus: | Succinimonas |
| Species: | Succinimonas amylolytica |
| Description: | Gram-negative,short,rounded endrod to coccoid organism 1.0 to 1.5μm wide and 1.2 to 3 μm long with most cells oval in shape. Intracellular granules are often present around the periphery of the cells and bipolar staining is evident in some cells. Arrangement of cells is as singles, diplos, and clumps. The organism is motile with polar, monotrichous flagellation. Capsules are not seen. Deep colonies are lenticular and 0.7 to 1 mm in diameter. Surface colonies are smooth, entire, convex, translucent, light buff in color, and 0.7 to 1.5 mm in diameter. |
