This is related to ferromagnetic materials based on nano-sized bacterial cellulose templates. An agglomerate free magnetic nanoparticle cellulose material and a method of forming such magnetic nanoparticle cellulose materia has been developed. Further, the magnetic nonoparticles are physically attached on the cellulose material and evenly distribute
