Description of Oceanobacillus sojae DN 10

Gram-stain-positive, aerobic, non-flagellated, rod-shaped bacterium (0.5-0.7 μm wide, 1.7-1.9 μm long). Colonies grown on R2 A agar are white, circular, entire, and convex. Oxidase activity is positive. In the API 20NE test, cells are positive for glucose fermentation; urease activity; aesculin hydrolysis; and assimilation of D- glucose, D- mannose, malic acid, and trisodium citrate, but negative for nitrate reduction; indole production; activity of arginine dihydrolase and β -galactosidase; gelatin hydrolysis; and assimilation of L- arabinose, D- mannitol, N -acetyl-glucosamine, D- maltose, potassium gluconate, capric acid, adipic acid, and phenylacetic acid. Strain DN10 (= NIBRBAC000503400) was isolated from a sample of pickled perilla leaves in soy sauce collected from Anseong, Republic of Korea (37°00 ʹ 39.2 ʺ N, 127°15 ʹ 50.8 ʺ E).
