Abstract

We report preliminary observations of tissue images and micro-XAFS using x-ray microscopy techniques. Tissue specimens from hemocromatosis liver and knockout mice kidney were the subjects of the investigation. The x-ray microprobe experiments were conducted with a micro beam from an undulator beamline equipped with a set of K–B mirrors. Microbeam XAFS studies at selected pixels of interest from the metal images were conducted. These techniques, together with optical and IR imaging provide a powerful tool for tissue analysis using synchrotron radiation. Preliminary Fe and Cu K-edge XAFS results from these experiments are reported and discussed.
