Magnetite in freshwater magnetotactic bacteria.
A previously undescribed magnetotactic spirillum isolated from a freshwater swamp was mass cultured in the magnetic as well as the nonmagnetic state in chemically defined culture media. Results of Mossbauer spectroscopic analysis applied to whole cells identifies magnetite as a constituent of these magnetic bacteria.
متن کاملMagnetite biomineralization in Magnetospirillum gryphiswaldense: a time resolved X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy study
Magnetotactic bacteria biosynthesize magnetite nanocrystals (magnetosomes) with high chemical purity, species-specific crystal morphology on shape and size, and narrow size distribution. These magnetosomes allow the bacteria to orient and navigate along the geomagnetic field lines. The interest in these bacteria has recently increased because of the potential biomedical applications of the magn...
متن کاملCluster analysis of soft X-ray spectromicroscopy data.
Soft X-ray spectromicroscopy provides spectral data on the chemical speciation of light elements at sub-100 nm spatial resolution. When all chemical species in a specimen are known and separately characterized, existing approaches can be used to measure the concentration of each component at each pixel. In other cases (such as often occur in biology or environmental science), some spectral sign...
متن کاملCharacterization of Biomaterials by Soft X-Ray Spectromicroscopy
Synchrotron-based soft X-ray spectromicroscopy techniques are emerging as useful tools to characterize potentially biocompatible materials and to probe protein interactions with model biomaterial surfaces. Simultaneous quantitative chemical analysis of the near surface region of the candidate biomaterial, and adsorbed proteins, peptides or other biological species can be obtained at high spatia...
