Abstract

The application of magnetic nanoparticles allows labeling the cell for its manipulation via the external magnetic field. In this work, it is proposed to use glass-coated magnetic microwires as a magnetic pin system to create a strong and well-localized magnetic field at the end of such microwires. Magnetic microwires manufactured by the Taylor − Ulitovsky method exhibit tunable magnetic properties correlated with their unique micromagnetic structure. The control of magnetic properties can be achieved by, for example, the chemical composition of the wire: Fe-based microwire shows bistable hysteresis and thus strong stray fields at the ends, while Co-based one demonstrates S-shaped hysteresis with almost zero remanent magnetization because of a closed domain structure. In this research, we discovered by theoretical calculation and experiments the usability of both kinds of microwires for different approaches of cell manipulations.
