Dynamic Computational Model of Symptomatic Bacteremia to Inform Bacterial Separation Treatment Requirements
Fig 9
Magnetic separation efficiency, f(rf), of Gram-negative bacteria incubated with bacteria-targeting magnetic nanoparticles in whole blood.
In the model predictions, the maximum magnetic separation efficiency occurred using magnetic nanoparticles with a radius of 25nm. The theoretical model prediction was verified by comparison to results published by Kang et al.[13].
