Morphology Lampropedia hyalina
CELLULAR  
Staining Each cell is enclosed in a Gram-negative type of cell wall.
Morphology Sheets of rounded, almost cubical cells, arranged in square tablets of 16064 cells, occasionally separated into pairs or tetrads. Divide synchronously in a sheet and alternately in two planes. The cells of a tablet are enclosed within a complex,structured envelope.
Motility No flagella occur. Twitching movements of small groups of cells occur during active growth
Specialized structures Intracellular granules of poly-B-hydroxybutyrate are prominent..
Division  
COLONIAL  
Solid surface Growth occurs as a thin, hydrophobic, extending pellicle on the surface of both liquid and solid media. Nonpigmented.
Liquid  

 

Growth Parameters Lampropedia hyalina
PHYSIOLOGICAL  
Tropism Chemoorganotrophic. Energy sources are limited to intermediates of the tricarboxylic acid cycle. Carbohydrates, alcohols, glucosides and fatty acids are not utilized. Ammonium salts or certain amino acids can serve as sole nitrogen sources.
Oxygen Obligately aerobic, having a strictly respiratory type of metabolism with oxygen serving as the terminal electron acceptor.
pH Optimum pH, 7.0
Temperature . Optimum 30`C
Requirements Vitamins may be required for growth
Products  
Enzymes Oxidase- and catalase-positive.
Unique features  
ENVIRONMENTAL  
Habitat . The ecological niche is unknown, but observations and isolations indicate an environment rich in organic matter.
Lifestyle
