Mystery unveiled for an exploration into the mysteries of cell growth
Plants resistant to a key inhibitor, with a strong influence on the process of cell growth, have been discovered by a team from BIAM. This is an asset for a better understanding of plant growth regulation, with potential implications in both the food security sector and the treatment of inflammatory diseases and cancers. The study […]
A sustainable synthesis of magnetite nanoparticles
for environmentally-friendly biotechnological applications
Researchers at BIAM drew inspiration from the natural processes encountered in magnetotactic bacteria to synthesize magnetite nanoparticles. This promising biomimetic approach opens up various avenues of sustainable and eco-friendly applications, ranging from water purification to biomedical advancements. Magnetotactic bacteria, naturally proficient in biomineralization, produce magnetosomes (magnetite nanoparticles) using a mineral precursor stabilized by macromolecules. This […]
