Phylogenetic significance of composition and crystal morphology of magnetosome minerals

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2013
Magnetotactic bacteria (MTB) biomineralize magnetosomes, nano-scale crystals of magnetite or greigite in membrane enclosures, that comprise a permanent magnetic dipole in each cell.

Synchrotron‐Based Nano‐X‐Ray Absorption Near‐Edge Structure Revealing Intracellular Heterogeneity of Iron Species in Magnetotactic Bacteria

open access: yesSmall Science, 2022
Magnetotactic bacteria (MTB) sequester iron from the environment to biomineralize magnetite or greigite nanoparticles in magnetosome organelles, though the necessity of intracellular iron storage for the formation process is still in question ...

Collective Response and Navigation Dynamics of Magnetospirillum gryphiswaldense under Rotating Magnetic Fields

open access: yesSmall, Volume 21, Issue 50, December 17, 2025.
The dynamics of Magnetospirillum gryphiswaldense under rotating magnetic fields are explored through the analysis of thousands of trajectories. The study reveals distinct navigation modes and transitions influenced by field strength and frequency. Directionality, alignment, and swimming behavior are examined to uncover how these microorganisms respond ...

Accelerated Incubation Method for Identification of Boreal Soils With Hypersulfidic Material

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Soil Science, Volume 76, Issue 6, November–December 2025.
ABSTRACT Sulfide‐bearing sediments (i.e., soils with hypersulfidic material) occur worldwide in many coastal and inland freshwater settings, that if exposed to oxidation, will transform to acid sulfate soils (ASS; a soil with sulfuric material) mobilizing acidity and metals into watercourses with serious environmental consequences and damage to ...

Micromagnetic Simulations of Chemical Remanent Magnetization Acquisition in Single‐Vortex Magnetite Particles

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 20, 28 October 2025.
Abstract Magnetic minerals can preserve remanent magnetization to provide ancient magnetic field records. Although thermoremanent magnetization (TRM) is well understood, chemical remanent magnetization (CRM) from chemical processes is also prevalent in nature and can complicate TRM records by introducing additional remanence signals.

Biomimicry of Magnetotactic Bacteria Via Self‐Organized Soft Matter Dispersions

open access: yesAdvanced Physics Research, Volume 4, Issue 10, October 2025.
Self‐assembled ferrofluid droplet chain coated with a lipid bilayer, mimicking the structural, functional and dynamic properties of magnetotactic bacteria. The controlled magnetic responsiveness suggests applicational potential of these soft matter systems in biosensing, targeted delivery, and magnetic‐responsive materials.

Current Practices for Analyzing Soils and Sediments via Mössbauer Spectroscopy

open access: yesJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, Volume 188, Issue 5, Page 742-773, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Environmental scientists are increasingly returning to Mössbauer spectroscopy (MBS) to reveal details about iron (Fe)‐bearing phases in soils and sediments. MBS is particularly powerful at distinguishing between Fe(II) and Fe(III) and, given appropriate background information, can offer exceptionally precise information on Fe speciation in ...

The Magnetosome Model: Insights into the Mechanisms of Bacterial Biomineralization

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2013
Though the most ready example of biomineralization is the calcium phosphate of vertebrate bones and teeth, many bacteria are capable of creating biominerals inside their cells.
