Magnetosomes could be protective shields against metal stress in magnetotactic bacteria
(Nature, 2020-07)
Magnetotactic bacteria are aquatic microorganisms with the ability to biomineralise membrane-enclosed magnetic nanoparticles, called magnetosomes. These magnetosomes are arranged into a chain that behaves as a magnetic ...
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 ...
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 ...
