PIXE analysis of Florida alligator plasma
Over the past several years, there has been an alarming increase in the death rate of some Florida alligators and a large decrease in the hatch rate of eggs. Several studies have been conducted to try to find a cause. These studies have ruled out toxins in the environment and high levels of toxic metals (mercury, for example). A previous study using Particle Induced X-ray Emission (PIXE) analys...
متن کاملPIXE analysis of paralesional psoriatic skin
The elemental distributions over epidermal skin cross sections as revealed by proton probe analysis on cryosections from human skin provides new insight into the physiology of skin. The present investigation shows that in comparison with skin from non-afflicted individuals nonlesional skin from psoriatics reveals abnormality (higher than normal levels) in calcium (Ca), iron (Fe) and zinc (Zn). ...
متن کاملPIXE and XRF analysis of honey samples
The systematic determination of trace-element concentrations in honey samples was done by the PIXE method using a 2 MeV proton beam and by the total reflection XRF method. The different kinds of honey samples were collected in the period of spring–summer in three places of Poland: in the centre of Warsaw (a highly polluted region) and about 100 km east of Warsaw and 70 km southwest of Warsaw (a...
متن کاملThe scanning microbeam PIXE analysis facility at NIRS
In March 1999, a HVEE Tandetron was installed in the Electrostatic Accelerator Building of National Institute of Radiological Sciences (NIRS) for particle induced X-ray emission (PIXE) analysis. The specifications of the Tandetron accelerator system operating at NIRS are as follows: the accelerating voltage is 0.4–1.7 MV, and the maximum beam current is 500 nA at 3.4 MeV. The accelerator facili...
متن کاملPIXE Analysis of Bone Cut with Hacksaw Blades
Forensic anthropologists use various methods to determine the type of weapons used in cases involving a dismembered body. For this study PIXE (particle-induced x-ray emission) analysis was performed on samples taken from pieces of pig bone cut with three different hacksaw blades. The analysis was used to determine if the blades left any elemental residue on the bone. When the results of the PIX...
