Magnetite in Sokli carbonatite massif and in Tulppio olivinite [PDF]
Occurrence, ilmenite exsolutions and composition of magnetite in the carbonatite massif of Sokli and in the olivinite of Tulppio have been studied. In the carbonatite massif, magnetite of magmatic carbonatites is hypidio-idiomorphic, contains only very ...

Magnetite and magnetotaxis in microorganisms
AbstractMagnetotactic bacteria from freshwater and marine sediments orient and navigate along geomagnetic field lines. Their magnetotactic response is based on intracellular, single magnetic domains of ferrimagnetic magnetite, which impart a permanent magnetic dipole moment to the cell.

Configurational anisotropy in single-domain and pseudosingle-domain grains of magnetite [PDF]
In classical domain theory, single-domain (SD) grains change their magnetization by coherent rotation, where the energy barrier to domain reversal is provided by the magnetocrystalline anisotropy or by shape anisotropy for elongated grains.

Necessity of electrically conductive pili for methanogenesis with magnetite stimulation [PDF]
Background Magnetite-mediated direct interspecies electron transfer (DIET) between Geobacter and Methanosarcina species is increasingly being invoked to explain magnetite stimulation of methane production in anaerobic soils and sediments.

Critical single-domain/multidomain grain sizes in noninteracting and interacting elongated magnetite particles: Implications for magnetosomes [PDF]
The critical size for stable single-domain (SD) behavior has been calculated as a function of grain elongation for magnetite grains using a numerical micromagnetic algorithm.

Functional analysis of the magnetosome island in Magnetospirillum gryphiswaldense: the mamAB operon is sufficient for magnetite biomineralization [PDF]
Bacterial magnetosomes are membrane-enveloped, nanometer-sized crystals of magnetite, which serve for magnetotactic navigation. All genes implicated in the synthesis of these organelles are located in a conserved genomic magnetosome island (MAI).

Interactions between magnetite and humic substances: redox reactions and dissolution processes
Humic substances (HS) are redox-active compounds that are ubiquitous in the environment and can serve as electron shuttles during microbial Fe(III) reduction thus reducing a variety of Fe(III) minerals.
