Abstract

The average blocking temperatures of ferritin molecules containing differing amounts of iron were determined by Mossbauer spectroscopy. The results imply that the magnetic anisotropy of the ferritin core particles is a function of particle volume. By addition of57Fe to ferritin core particles it was determined that, at a given temperature within the superpara-magnetic temperature region, the "last-in" ferric ions have average relaxation times that are shorter than those of the bulk ferric ions. © 1991 J.C.
