Thiomargarita namibiensis is not considered harmful to humans. This large sulfur bacterium primarily lives in marine sediments and plays a role in the sulfur cycle. While it can produce sulfide, which is toxic in high concentrations, the environmental conditions where it thrives typically keep such levels in check. Therefore, direct exposure to this bacterium is unlikely to pose any health risks to humans.
