Magnetometry of neurons using a superconducting qubit

Iron is one of the most abundant trace elements in the human body, however, detection at a single-cell level with redox status is challenging. Here, the authors demonstrate magnetometry of neurons with a microscale magnetometer using a superconducting flux qubit, and Fe (III) ions in the cells are i...
