E. areogenes grows wet, grey colored colonies in non selective medium.
Individual
Rod-Shaped.
Enterobacter aerogenes are classified as coccobacillus, based on their cellular morphology. They are rod-shaped (bacillus), but short and almost spherical (coccus).

alpha-glucosidase test: using 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl-alpha-D-glucopyranoside (included in chromogenic media), but not using alpha-methyl-glucoside fermentation. Cronobacter (E. sakazakii) are positive for this test and E. aerogenes are negative.
Yes. Enterobacter aerogenes ferments lactose and glucose as well as producing gas. It does not produce H2S. Occasionally the slant may revert to an alkaline reaction even though lactose has been fermented. Another lactose test should be formed, such as the reaction on MacConkey agar

E. aerogenes is generally found in the human GASTROINTESTINAL TRACt

The color that would TSI media be after 48 hours icubation with enterobacter aerogenes is black.
Enterobacter aerogenes is a non-acid fast bacteria. Bacteria only in the Mycobacteria and Nocardia genus are acid fast.
90% to 100% of Enterobacter aerogenes strains can ferment glucose, sucrose, and lactose. The same percentage of strains produce gas as a byproduct of that fermentation.

Enterobacter aerogenes is a Gram-negative, oxidase negative, catalase positive, citrate positive, indole negative, rod-shaped bacterium that is generally found in the human gastrointestinal tract. It is amylase negative.
Yes it is. You can easily check it out yourself by using a tributyrine based agar. If Enterobacter aerogenes builds a lipase action enzyme, the surrounding of your colonies will be much clearer. If you have any other questions, I suggest you the Bergey's manual of systematic bacteriology.
