Engineered magnetosomes fused to functional molecule (protein A) provide a highly effective alternative to commercial immunomagnetic beads

Table 1 Particle (hydrated radius) size, zeta potential, and polydispersity of ∆F-BMP-FA following various numbers of wash cycles

Number of wash cycles	Hydrated radius	Zeta potential	Polydispersity
5	674 ± 1.2	− 38.41 ± 0.05	0.279
6	783.7 ± 5.8	− 38.38 ± 0.56	0.307
7	789.1 ± 2.6	− 38.36 ± 0.43	0.282
8	820 ± 3.9	− 38.4 ± 0.32	0.261

One sample was prepared for each wash cycles and each sample was run 10 cycles (n = 10)
