Magnetic bacteria or can be used to build biological computers

According to the report of the “Popular Science” website of the United States, as computer components have become smaller and smaller, it has become more and more difficult to use conventional methods to manufacture computers. This means that the production of future nano hard drives requires a great price. As a result, scientists at the University of Leeds in the United Kingdom and Tokyo A&M University in Japan are seeking the help of magnetic bacteria. They said that they could use magnetic bacteria to make tiny components similar to those in traditional computers and even use them to build future bio-computers.

Magnetotactic bacteria is a type of bacteria that can conduct directional motion to search for oxygen under the action of an external magnetic field and form nano-magnetic particles, magnetosomes, in the body, which are mainly distributed in soil, lakes and oceans and other underwater sludge. When these bacteria feed on iron, special proteins produce tiny magnetically stronger magnetosomes within the bacteria.

Scientists say that by feeding and manipulating this type of bacteria, they can create more magnetosomes that can be used as components in future micro-hardware devices. Although it is difficult to make very small magnets and change their shape so that they can be used as a storage device, it is possible to jointly accomplish this arduous work by inducing the proteins and the bacteria they inhabit, manufacturing magnetic materials and mass-producing them. A well-proportioned magnetosome.

In addition, scientists have also been hoping to create tiny wires, making it possible to exchange information through cell membranes, and to make it possible to make nanoscale communications from biological cells in computers. These “wires” look more like nanotubes with electrical resistance, they can penetrate cell walls covered by cell membranes, and they have extremely high biocompatibility.

The latest research opens the door for scientists who want to break the barriers between electromechanics and biology. Scientists are expected to use the latest technology to develop biocompatible computers that can act as assistants in human surgery and even live in the human body. (Liu Xia)
