Analysis of rifle and pistol primer gunshot residue using SEM-EDX

Geo-Chemical Exploration of Granite Mining Waste Using XRD, SEM/EDX and AAS Analysis

The purpose of the study was to investigate the mineralogical and Heavy Metals (HMs) present in the granite mining soils in Chimakurthy, India. The mineral exploration of mining soils were identified by X-Ray Diffractometer (XRD) pattern analysis. However, the morphological features and quantitative HMs were detected by Scanning Electron Microscopy/Energy Dispersed Spectroscopy (SEM/...

EDX fluorescence analysis and SEM observations of resin composites.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the filler compositions of recently available light-cured resins. The composition of each resin paste was evaluated using an energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectrometer. Scanning electron microscopic observation of the polymerized resin pastes was also conducted. The main component of each resin composite was Si, while the other elements detected ...

Using ICP-OES and SEM-EDX in biosorption studies

We have compared the analytical results obtained by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES) and by scanning electron microscopy with an energy dispersive X-ray analytical system (SEM-EDX) in order to explore the mechanism of metal ions biosorption by biomass using two independent methods. The marine macroalga Enteromorpha sp. was enriched with Cu(II), Mn(II), Zn(II), ...
