Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of electron probe microanalysis of biological systems is to identify, localize, and quantify elements, mass, and water in cells and tissues. The method is based on the idea that all electrons and photons emerging from an electron beam irradiated specimen contain information on its structure and composition. In particular, energy spectroscopy of X-rays and electrons after interaction of the electron beam with the specimen is used for this purpose. However, the application of this method in biology and medicine has to overcome three specific problems: 1. The principle constituent of most cell samples is water. Since liquid water is not compatible with vacuum conditions in the electron microscope, specimens have to be prepared without disturbing the other components, in parti cular diffusible ions (elements). 2. Electron probe microanaly sis provides physical data on either dry specimens or fully hydrated, frozen specimens. This data usually has to be con verted into quantitative data meaningful to the cell biologist or physiologist. 3. Cells and tissues are not static but dynamic systems. Thus, for example, microanalysis of physiolo gical processes requires sampling techniques which are adapted to address specific biological or medical questions. During recent years, remarkable progress has been made to overcome these problems. Cryopreparation, image analysis, and electron energy loss spectroscopy are key areas which have solved some problems and offer promise for future improvements.

Download or read book X Ray Optics and X Ray Microanalysis written by H. H. Pattee and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 641 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: X-ray Optics and X-ray Microanalysis covers the proceedings of the Symposium on X-ray Optics and X-ray Microanalysis, held at Stanford University on August 22-24, 1962. The book focuses on X-ray microscopy, microradiography, radiation and irradiation, and X-ray microanalysis. The selection first offers information on the methods of X-ray microscopy and X-ray absorption microanalysis. Discussions focus on X-ray scanning microscopy, contact microradiography, point projection microscopy, and total dry-weight determinations. The text then takes a look at X-ray microanalysis in biology and medicine; electron microscopic enlargements of X-ray absorption micrographs; and automation in microradiography. The publication examines the production of Fresnel zone plates for extreme ultraviolet and soft X radiation; quantitative microradiographic studies of human epidermis; and irradiation effect on total organic nerve-cell material determined by integrating X-ray absorption. The manuscript then reviews the calculation of fluorescence excited by characteristic radiation in the X-ray microanalyzer and the method for calculating the absorption correction in electron-probe microanalysis. The selection is a valuable reference for readers interested in X-ray technology.
Download or read book X ray Microanalysis in Electron Microscopy for Biologists written by A. John Morgan and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1985 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This compact guide provides a straightforward introduction to electron microprobe x-ray analysis, a nondestructive technique that greatly facilitates the study of the chemistry of cells. Assuming no prior knowledge of electron optics, Morgan explains the principle of x-ray production and detection, describes the various methods for converting measured x-ray intensities to element concentrations in thin specimens, and directs the reader to primary sources for more definitive practical guidelines. A painless introduction to a powerful laboratory technique, this book will be a useful aid for cell biologists, biological electron microscopists, and electrolyte physiologists.

This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 679 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book has evolved by processes of selection and expansion from its predecessor, Practical Scanning Electron Microscopy (PSEM), published by Plenum Press in 1975. The interaction of the authors with students at the Short Course on Scanning Electron Microscopy and X-Ray Microanalysis held annually at Lehigh University has helped greatly in developing this textbook. The material has been chosen to provide a student with a general introduction to the techniques of scanning electron microscopy and x-ray microanalysis suitable for application in such fields as biology, geology, solid state physics, and materials science. Following the format of PSEM, this book gives the student a basic knowledge of (1) the user-controlled functions of the electron optics of the scanning electron microscope and electron microprobe, (2) the characteristics of electron-beam-sample inter actions, (3) image formation and interpretation, (4) x-ray spectrometry, and (5) quantitative x-ray microanalysis. Each of these topics has been updated and in most cases expanded over the material presented in PSEM in order to give the reader sufficient coverage to understand these topics and apply the information in the laboratory. Throughout the text, we have attempted to emphasize practical aspects of the techniques, describing those instru ment parameters which the microscopist can and must manipulate to obtain optimum information from the specimen. Certain areas in particular have been expanded in response to their increasing importance in the SEM field. Thus energy-dispersive x-ray spectrometry, which has undergone a tremendous surge in growth, is treated in substantial detail.
Download or read book Electron Probe X ray Microanalysis of Medical and Biological Specimens written by A. J. Tousimis and published by . This book was released on 1964 with total page 15 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The need for local microchemical analysis at the micron level and a summarized review of the literature on the electron probe application in biology and medicine are presented. The author's procedures for preparation of biological specimens, electron probe effects on the specimen, and results from microanalysis studies on the following topics are given: (1) calcified corpuscles used as standard test specimens, (2) normal growth of the mammalian long bone, (3) hardening of blood vessels, (4) degeneration of cancer cells, and (5) Wilson's disease. Qualitative data are presented in all cases, and quantitative data for calcium and phosphorus in both normal and pathologic calcification processes. Light microscopy, electron microscopy, X-ray contact microradiography, and X-ray diffraction were carried out simultaneously. Some of these results are correlated with those obtained by the electron probe microanalysis method.
