DESCRIPTION
Researchers have shown substantial degradation of these nanoparticles, followed in certain cases by the cells 're-magnetizing'. This phenomenon is the sign of biosynthesis of new magnetic nanoparticles from iron released in the intracellular medium by the degradation of the first nanoparticles.
