Reduced Efficiency of Magnetotaxis in Magnetotactic Coccoid Bacteria in Higher than Geomagnetic Fields [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 2009
Magnetotactic bacteria are microorganisms that orient and migrate along magnetic field lines. The classical model of polar magnetotaxis predicts that the field-parallel migration velocity of magnetotactic bacteria increases monotonically with the strength of an applied magnetic field.

Geomagnetic Navigation of Autonomous Underwater Vehicle Based on Multi-objective Evolutionary Algorithm

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurorobotics, 2017
This paper presents a multi-objective evolutionary algorithm of bio-inspired geomagnetic navigation for Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV). Inspired by the biological navigation behavior, the solution was proposed without using a priori information ...

Micro‐ and nanomotors in biomedical applications

open access: yesResponsive Materials, Volume 3, Issue 3, August 2025.
Micro‐ and nanomotors (MNMs), as autonomous devices converting chemical or external energy into mechanical propulsion, have emerged as transformative drug delivery platforms in biomedicine. This review systematically outlines the design principles governing MNMs' propulsion and operation, highlights the applications of MNMs in disease treatment, and ...

Gigantism in unique biogenic magnetite at the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We report the discovery of exceptionally large biogenic magnetite crystals in clay-rich sediments spanning the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM) in a borehole at Ancora, New Jersey. Aside from previously-described abundant bacterial magnetofossils,

Microbes as Teachers: Rethinking Knowledge in the Anthropocene

open access: yesMicrobial Biotechnology, Volume 18, Issue 7, July 2025.
This essay positions microbes as active ‘teachers’ of ecological wisdom. Microbes demonstrate resilience, symbiosis and ecosystem intelligence through their metabolic networks, providing a dialogic learning experience. Emerging technologies enable reciprocal engagement with microbes, repositioning humans from observers to embedded learners of the vital

Magnetotactic bacteria Magnetic navigation on the microscale

open access: yes, 2015
Magnetotactic bacteria are aquatic microorganisms with the ability to swim along the field lines of a magnetic field, which in their natural environment is provided by the magnetic field of the Earth.

Off-axis electron holography of bacterial cells and magnetic nanoparticles in liquid [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The mapping of electrostatic potentials and magnetic fields in liquids usingelectron holography has been considered to be unrealistic. Here, we showthat hydrated cells ofMagnetospirillum magneticumstrain AMB-1 and assem-blies of magnetic nanoparticles ...

Life in a Benthic Mirror‐World: Evidence for Deep‐Living Magnetotactic Bacteria in Hydrothermally Bottom‐Up Oxygenated Pacific Ridge Flank Sediments

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 9, 16 May 2025.
Abstract Low‐temperature hydrothermal fluids in crustal rocks of the Clarion‐Clipperton‐Zone (East Pacific) supply dissolved oxygen into the sediment from below. Diffusive upward transport led to formation of an inverse oxygen gradient zone in the overlying sediments.
