Research has proven iron-loaded Archaeoglobus fulgidus ferritin (AfFtn) as a good T2 MRI contrast agent and that higher concentrations of iron in iron-loaded AfFtn enhanced T2 imaging contrasts. Works on increasing in vivo AfFtn iron loading using E. coli as a biofactory have been performed by incre...
