This is an aerobic, Gram-variable, rod-shaped, endospore-forming, oxidase positive, bacteria. The endospores are ellipsoidal, located in central/paracentral, unswollen sporangia. In laboratory conditions, it produces opaque, creamish, raised margin colonies at 30°±2°C when incubated at 24-72 hrs. on Tryptic Soy Agar (TSA). These bacteria may be isolated from feces (poultry) and soil.
Human pathogenicity has not been well described at this time. [1][2]
