Magnetotactic bacteria derive their magnetic orientation from magnetosomes, which are
unique organelles that contain nanometre-sized crystals of magnetic iron minerals. Although …

Magnetotactic bacteria (MTB) are widespread, motile, diverse prokaryotes that biomineralize
a unique organelle called the magnetosome. Magnetosomes consist of a nano-sized crystal …

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 …

Since the discovery of deep eutectic solvents (DESs) in 2003, significant progress has been
