Selective Manipulation of Nanoparticles in Very Large Scale Integration (VLSI) using Magnetotactic Bacteria [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Magnetotactic bacteria are a group of prokaryotic cells that orient and migrate along the geomagnetic field lines for their physiological functions and anaerobic/microaerophilic requirements. We report the use of magnetotaxis i.e.

Viscotaxis: microswimmer navigation in viscosity gradients [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The survival of many microorganisms, like \textit{Leptospira} or \textit{Spiroplasma} bacteria, can depend on their ability to navigate towards regions of favorable viscosity.

Clinical Translation of Inorganic Nanoparticles and Engineered Living Materials for Cancer Therapy

open access: yesChemPlusChem, Volume 89, Issue 10, October 2024.
A diverse array of particle‐based nano‐ to microsystems is under investigation for potential applications in cancer treatment. Despite extensive research, only a small fraction of these innovations is expected to reach clinical use. The aim of this Concept Article is to review the use of inorganic nanoparticles and engineered living materials for the ...

Genomic evidence of the illumination response mechanism and evolutionary history of magnetotactic bacteria within the Rhodospirillaceae family

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2019
Background Magnetotactic bacteria (MTB) are ubiquitous in natural aquatic environments. MTB can produce intracellular magnetic particles, navigate along geomagnetic field, and respond to light.
