Micromanipulation of magnetotactic bacteria with a microelectromagnet matrix
Micromanipulation of magnetotactic bacteria with a microelectromagnet matrix was demonstrated. Magnetotactic bacteria synthesize a chain of magnetic nanoparticles inside their body to guide their motion in the geomagnetic field. A microelectromagnet matrix consists of two arrays of lithographically patterned wires, one array perpendicular to the other, that are separated and covered by insulati...
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 کاملA Green Chemical Technique for the Synthesis of Magnetic Nanoparticles by Magnetotactic Bacteria
Bacterial magnetic nanoparticles have great useful potential in biotechnological and biomedical applications. In this study, a liquid growth medium was modified for cultivation a fastidious magnetotactic bacterium that has been isolated from Anzali lagoon, Iran in our previous research. These modifications include change in vitamin, mineral, carbon sources and etcetera. In our experience, the s...
متن کاملMagnetic microstructure of magnetotactic bacteria by electron holography
Off-axis electron holography in the transmission electron microscope was used to correlate the physical and magnetic microstructure of magnetite nanocrystals in magnetotactic bacteria. The magnetite crystals were all single magnetic domains, and the magnetization directions of small superparamagnetic crystals were constrained by magnetic interactions with larger crystals in the chains. Shape an...
متن کاملBiologically Controlled Mineralization of Magnetic Iron Minerals by Magnetotactic Bacteria
The biomineralization of several magnetic iron minerals, including the iron oxide magnetite (Fe30 4 ; Fe 2I Fe/+04 ) and the iron sulfides greigite (Fe3S4 ) and pyrrhotite (Fe7SS)' can be mediated by bacteria as well as by other organisms. These minerals are known to be synthesized by procaryotes in one of two fundamentally different modes of biomineralization. The first is uncontrolled mineral...
