Abstract
Magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs), which can be aligned along a magnetic field, were applied to generate large‐scale assemblies of biological nanofibers with the orientation of the constituent nanofibers defined by the applied magnetic field. When decorated with MNPs, these nanofibers could be guided by the external magnetic field to become oriented either horizontally or vertically.Keywords
