Abstract Marine sediments contain magnetic mineral particles of detrital, biogenic and authigenic origin that record changes in the direction and intensity of the geomagnetic field over geological time. Previous studies have demonstrated that the recording efficiencies of detrital and biogenic magnetite differ.

Magnetosome vesicles are present before magnetite formation, and MamA is required for their activation [PDF]
Bacterial magnetosomes are intracellular compartments that house highly ordered magnetite crystals. By using Magnetospirillum sp. AMB-1 as a model system, we show that magnetosome vesicles exist in the absence of magnetite, biomineralization of magnetite

Directed Navigation of Magnetotactic Bacteria via Magnetotaxis in a 3D Vasculature‐On‐A‐Chip
A perfusable vascular network is developed to investigate MTB at the single‐microorganism level. MTB is demonstrated to successfully align and navigate along the magnetic field inside the microvessels. Abstract Magnetotactic bacteria (MTB), inherently motile and self‐powered, are promising biorobotic candidates for targeted anti‐cancer drug delivery ...

Structure and evolution of chlorate reduction composite transposons. [PDF]
UnlabelledThe genes for chlorate reduction in six bacterial strains were analyzed in order to gain insight into the metabolism. A newly isolated chlorate-reducing bacterium (Shewanella algae ACDC) and three previously isolated strains (Ideonella ...

Antibacterial micro/nanorobots (MNRs) represent a breakthrough in antibacterial therapy, making precise delivery of drugs to the infection site. This review systematically summarizes the material composition, actuation, and applications of MNRs in combating biofilms and drug‐resistant infections while emphasizing the existing challenges of ...

Magnetosomes Are Cell Membrane Invaginations Organized by the Actin-Like Protein MamK [PDF]
Magnetosomes are membranous bacterial organelles sharing many features of eukaryotic organelles. Using electron cryotomography, we found that magnetosomes are invaginations of the cell membrane flanked by a network of cytoskeletal filaments.

ABSTRACT Rare earth elements (REEs) play an irreplaceable role in modern technology and industry. However, due to the highly similar physicochemical properties among REEs, their separation remains a significant challenge. Additionally, REEs often exist in low‐concentration solutions, making efficient REE recovery an urgent task.
