Reduction–oxidation (redox) reactions occur during burial because sediments contain
reactive mixtures of oxidised and reduced components. Diagenetic chemical reactions …

Iron biominerals are formed by a broad host of organisms, in which they serve various
functions. For example, iron oxides formed by organisms serve for strengthening of tissues1 …

We present a highly sensitive and accurate method for quantitative detection and
characterization of noninteracting or weakly interacting uniaxial single domain particles …

Magnetotactic bacteria (MTB) are a diverse group of microorganisms with the ability to orient
and migrate along geomagnetic field lines. This unique feat is based on specific intracellular …

Magnetotactic bacteria, which most commonly live within the oxic-anoxic transition zone
(OATZ) of aquatic environments, produce intracellular crystals of magnetic minerals …

Magnetic hysteresis measurements of sediments have resulted in widespread reporting of
“pseudo‐single‐domain”‐like magnetic properties. In contrast, the ideal single domain (SD) …

Magnetotactic bacteria intracellularly biomineralize magnetite of an ideal grain size for
recording palaeomagnetic signals. However, bacterial magnetite has only been reported in …

Magnetotactic bacteria (MTB) are ubiquitous aquatic microorganisms that incorporate iron
from their environment to synthesize intracellular nanoparticles of magnetite (Fe3O4) or …

Magnetotactic bacteria (MTB) belong to several phyla. This class of microorganisms exhibits
the ability of magneto-aerotaxis. MTB synthesize biominerals in organelle-like structures …

Fossil biominerals and fossils of microorganisms in ancient rocks contain important
biogeochemical signals. Decoding this record may reveal crucial information about the …
