Production of new composites for the creation of modern materials with desired properties is the key feature of nanotechnology. Despite the well known advantages of magnetic nanoparticles, the aim of the present study was to synthesize lysozyme amyloid fibrils from hen egg white and subsequently doped this solution with single walled carbon nanotubes and with the magnetite Fe₃O₄ labelled single walled carbon nanotubes. Transmission electron microscopy and polarization optical microscopy were used to obtain the structural and dimensional information about samples. Measurements of magnetic properties indicate the considerable increase of the saturation magnetization for solutions included the magnetite nanoparticles.
