We present a technique of transporting and positioning living cells internalized by nickel (Ni) nanowires guided by magnetic field. Nanoscale magnetic nanowires are internalized by the Rat Neuroblastoma (ATCC number CRL-2754) and the cells are transported and positioned by magnetic fields from the magnetic material-coated electrodes. This technique may enable the interfacing between neurons and electronic China magnets devices to empower investigations pertaining to non-invasive neuron probing as well as nanofabricated neural pharmacological technologies.http://www.chinamagnets.biz
