isolated from human clinical specimens or hospital environments.
Morphology
Cells are rods (0.5 × 1-2 µm). Longer rods and long chains (containing 4-10 cells) may occur in broth medium. Cells lack flagella. Non-motile. No gliding motility or swarming occurs. Yellow or yellow to orange colonies are usually produced.
