(1/1)

kaushik.swe:
Bacteria can use tiny magnetic particles to effectively create a "natural battery", a new research shows.

The bacteria can load electrons onto and discharge electrons from microscopic particles of magnetite.

This discovery holds the potential of using this mechanism to help clean up environmental pollution and other bioengineering applications.
