While significant advances have been made in exploring and uncovering the promising potential of biomagnetic materials, persistent challenges remain on various fronts, notably in the characterization of individual elements. This study makes use of advanced modes of Magnetic Force Microscopy (MFM) and tailored MFM probes to characterize individual magnetotactic bacteria in different environments. The characterization of these elements posed a significant challenge, as the magnetosomes, besides presenting low magnetic signal, are embedded in bacteria of much larger size. To overcome this, customed Atomic Force Microscopy probes are developed through various strategies, enhancing sensitivity in different environments, including liquids. Furthermore, employing MFM imaging under an in-situ magnetic field provides an opportunity to gather quantitative data regarding the critical fields of these individual chains of nanoparticles. This approach marks a substantial advancement in the field of MFM for biological applications, enabling the detection of magnetosomes under different conditions.
