Elucidating the role of shape anisotropy infaceted magnetic nanoparticles using biogenicmagnetosomes as a model
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2020-08-14)
Shape anisotropy is of primary importance to understand the magnetic behavior of nanoparticles, but a rigorous analysis in polyhedral morphologies is missing. In this work, a model based on finite element techniques has ...
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 ...
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 ...
