Evaluation of cell disruption technologies on magnetosome chain length and aggregation behaviour from Magnetospirillum gryphiswaldense MSR-1. Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 11, Article 1172457. https://doi.org/10.3389/fbioe.2023.1172457

Magnetosomes are biologically-derived magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) naturally produced by magnetotactic bacteria (MTB). Due to their distinctive characteristics, such as narrow size distribution and high biocompatibility, magnetosomes represent an at...

In this work, the cutting of carbon nanotubes is investigated using silver nanoparticles deposited on arc discharge multi-walled carbon nanotubes. The composite is subsequently heated in air to fabricate shortened multi-walled nanotubes. Complementar... Read More about Ag-catalysed cutting of multi-walled carbon nanotubes.

Assembly, growth, and catalytic activity of gold nanoparticles in hollow carbon nanofibers (2012)
Journal Article
La Torre, A., Giménez-López, M. D. C., Fay, M. W., Rance, G. A., Solomonsz, W. A., Chamberlain, T. W., Brown, P. D., & Khlobystov, A. N. (2012). Assembly, growth, and catalytic activity of gold nanoparticles in hollow carbon nanofibers. ACS Nano, 6(3), 2000-2007. https://doi.org/10.1021/nn300400z

Graphitized carbon nanofibers (GNFs) act as efficient templates for the growth of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) adsorbed on the interior (and exterior) of the tubular nanostructures. Encapsulated AuNPs are stabilized by interactions with the step-edges... Read More about Assembly, growth, and catalytic activity of gold nanoparticles in hollow carbon nanofibers.
