Abstract
X-ray fluorescence-detected flow cytometry can enable the detection and characterization of ultra-trace, trace, and bulk elemental content at the cellular level using synchrotron-induced x-ray emission from fully aquated actively respiring cells. Although very much still a technique in development, this technique has been used to characterize cell-to-cell elemental variability in bovine red blood cells, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and NIH3T3 mouse fibroblasts. Herein we describe the experimental setup and the key methodological aspects of data collection and processing.
