Journal Article
Céspedes, E., Byrne, J. M., Farrow, N., Moise, S., Coker, V. S., Bencsik, M., …Telling, N. D. (in press). Bacterially synthesized ferrite nanoparticles for magnetic hyperthermia applications. Nanoscale, 6(21), 12958-12970. https://doi.org/10.1039/c4nr03004d

Magnetic hyperthermia uses AC stimulation of magnetic nanoparticles to generate heat for cancer cell destruction. Whilst nanoparticles produced inside magnetotactic bacteria have shown amongst the highest reported heating to date, these particles are...

For decades, a link between increased levels of iron and areas of Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology has been recognized, including AD lesions comprised of the peptide ß-amyloid (Aß). Despite many observations of this association, the relationship be...

Evidence of redox-active iron formation following aggregation of ferrihydrite and the Alzheimer's disease peptide ß-amyloid. (2014)
Journal Article

Recent work has demonstrated increased levels of redox-active iron biominerals in Alzheimer's disease (AD) tissue. However, the origin, nature, and role of iron in AD pathology remains unclear. Using X-ray absorption, X-ray microspectroscopy, and ele...
