Nonpathogenic organisms many different types or strains. One strain of a bacterium species can be nonpathogenic and another strain of the same bacterium can be pathogenic. Nonpathogenic organisms Nonpathogenic organisms are those that do not cause disease, harm or death to another organism and is usually used to describe bacteria. It describes a property of a bacterium - its ability to cause disease. Most bacteria are nonpathogenic. It can describe the presence of non-disease causing bacteria that normally reside on the surface of vertebrates and invertebrates as commensals. Some nonpathogenic microorganisms are commensals on and inside the body of animals and are
