Thiomargarita namibiensis food storage

Introduction

The Thiomargarita namibiensis was discovered in 1997 by Heidi N. Schulz off of the coast of Walvis Bay, Namibia, Africa. The Thiomargarita namibiensis is a sulfide eating bacteria and although it mainly consumes sulfides, the Thiomargarita namibiensis also consumes some amounts of nitrates. The Thiomargarita namibiensis is currently the largest found bacteria (up to 0.3 mm in diameter). A separate strand of the Thiomargarita namibiensis was also found of the coast of the Gulf of Mexico in 2005 but this strand does not does not divide along a single axis and because of that, it is unable to form large chains.
