Structure and Function Analysis of Biological Samples Using Synchrotron Radiation

Materials Analysis Using Synchrotron Radiation

Synchrotron radiation (SR) is a tunable, highly oriented, intense X-ray. Its tunability has led to XAFS being used as a common analytical tool, and is particularly useful for examining local structures. In fact, its use is indispensable to the examination of not only amorphous materials or solutions but also multicomponent systems. Thanks to the high intensity of SR, it is possible to determine...

Simultaneous Imaging of Cerebrovascular Structure and Function in Hypertensive Rats Using Synchrotron Radiation Angiography

Hypertension has a profound influence on the structure and function of blood vessels. Cerebral vessels undergo both structural and functional changes in hypertensive animals. However, dynamic changes of cerebrovasculature and the factors involved in this process are largely unknown. In this study, we explored the dynamic changes of vascular structure in hypertensive rats using novel synchrotron...

Osteocytes Characterization Using Synchrotron Radiation CT and Finite Element Analysis

Materials Analysis Using Synchrotron Radiation and Neutron Beams

To develop high-performance and high-reliability products that do not contain any hazardous substances, Fujitsu uses many analysis techniques and various types of equipment. To add to these, we have been developing materials analysis techniques using synchrotron radiation and neutron beams, which cannot easily be handled by general analysis equipment. For this analysis, we make use of national ...
