Modifying the magnetic response of magnetotactic bacteria: incorporation of Gd and Tb ions into the magnetosome structure
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2022-06)
Magnetotactic bacteria Magnetospirillum gryphiswaldense MSR-1 biosynthesise chains of cube-octahedral magnetosomes, which are 40 nm magnetite high quality (Fe3O4) nanoparticles. The magnetic properties of these crystalline ...
Magnetotactic bacteria for cancer therapy
(American Institute of Physics, 2020-08-21)
Magnetotactic bacteria (MTB) are aquatic microorganisms that are able to biomineralize membrane-enclosed magnetic nanoparticles called magnetosomes. Inside the MTB, magnetosomes are arranged in a chain that allows MTB to ...
Probing the Stability and Magnetic Properties of Magnetosome Chains in Freeze-Dried Magnetotactic Bacteria
(Royal Society Of Chemistry, 2020-03-01)
Magnetospirillum gryphiswaldense biosynthesize high-quality magnetite nanoparticles, called magnetosomes, and arrange them into a chain that behaves like a magnetic compass. Here we perform magnetometry and polarized ...
Exploring the Different Degrees of Magnetic Disorder in TbxR1−xCu2 Nanoparticle Alloys
(MDPI, 2020-10-28)
Recently, potential technological interest has been revealed for the production of magnetocaloric alloys using Rare-Earth intermetallics. In this work, three series of TbxR1−xCu2 (R ≡ Gd, La, Y) alloys have been produced ...
Nanoflowers versus magnetosomes: comparison between two promising candidates for magnetic hyperthermia therapy
(IEEE Access, 2021-07-12)
[EN] Magnetic Fluid Hyperthermia mediated by iron oxide nanoparticles is one of the most
promising therapies for cancer treatment. Among the different candidates, magnetite and maghemite
nanoparticles have revealed to ...
Configuration of the magnetosome chain: a natural magnetic nanoarchitecture
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2018)
Magnetospirillum gryphiswaldense is a microorganism with the ability to biomineralize magnetite nanoparticles, called magnetosomes, and arrange them into a chain that behaves like a magnetic compass. Rather than straight ...
