Birefringence determination of magnetic moments of magnetotactic bacteria.
A birefringence technique is used to determine the average magnetic moments of magnetotactic bacteria in culture. Differences in are noted between live and dead bacteria, as well as between normal density and high density samples of live bacteria.
متن کاملLight scattering determination of magnetic moments of magnetotactic bacteria (invited)
where a = ~H/kBT, kB i~ Boltzmann's constant, T is te~ perature, and ~ is def1ned as before. The total stat1c structure factor S(QL,QR,a) is therefore the single nilrticle structllre factor, \~eighted by th" angular dis tribution function, integrated over all angles: S(QL,QR,a) = Nf p(~,a) Ssp(QL,QR,~) d~ (3) Light scattering was used to determine both ~he. average length8 and magnetic moment...
متن کاملA birefringence relaxation determination of rotational diffusion of magnetotactic bacteria.
The orientational relaxation of the magnetotactic bacterium Aquaspirillum magnetotacticum is observed by the decay of the optical birefringence upon switching off an aligning magnetic field. The data yield a rotational diffusion constant D(r) [unk] 0.13 s(-1) and information about cell sizes that is consistent with optical microscopy data.
متن کاملMagnetic Properties of Magnetotactic Bacteria
This paper reports on the magnetic properties of magnetosomes in the freshwater magnetotactic bacterium Aquaspirillum nlllgnetOlaClicwn. The magnetosomes are well crystallized particles of magnetite with dimensions of 40 to 50 nm, which are arranged within cells in a single linear chain and are within the single-magnetic-domain (SO) size range for. magnetite. A variety of magnetic properties ha...
متن کاملBest Moments Magnetotactic Bacteria Algorithm for Optimization
Magnetotactic bacteria optimization algorithm(MBOA) is an optimization algorithm based on the characteristics of magnetotactic bacteria, which is a kind of polyphyletic group of prokaryotes with the characteristics of magnetotaxis that make them orient and swim along geomagnetic field lines. In this paper, an improved MBOA is proposed. At first, it generates moments based on the interaction ene...
