Element concentration changes in mitotically active and postmitotic enterocytes. An x-ray microanalysis study
Unfixed freeze-dried and uncoated tissue sections of the mouse duodenum were suspended across a hole in a carbon planchet and analyzed in a scanning electron microscope fitted with energy-dispersive x-ray analytical equipment. Computer analysis of the x-ray spectra allowed elemental microanalysis of the nucleus, cytoplasm, and late anaphase-early telophase chromatin regions in the cryptal and v...
متن کاملLight element analysis of individual bacteria by x-ray microanalysis.
A method based on X-ray microanalysis (XRMA) with the transmission electron microscope for measurement of total amounts of elements in single microbial cells has been developed. All major elements in cells except hydrogen can be measured simultaneously. XRMA provided N/C ratios (means (plusmn) standard errors of the mean) for stationary-phase and growing Escherichia coli of 0.23 (plusmn) 0.01 a...
متن کاملX-ray microanalysis investigation of the changes in Na, K, and hemoglobin concentration in plasmodium falciparum-infected red blood cells.
Plasmodium falciparum is responsible for severe malaria. During the ∼48 h duration of its asexual reproduction cycle in human red blood cells, the parasite causes profound alterations in the homeostasis of the host red cell, with reversal of the normal Na and K gradients across the host cell membrane, and a drastic fall in hemoglobin content. A question critical to our understanding of how the ...
متن کاملBlue light-dependent changes in loosely bound calcium in Arabidopsis mesophyll cells: an X-ray microanalysis study
Calcium is involved in the signal transduction pathway from phototropins, the blue light photoreceptor kinases which mediate chloroplast movements. The chloroplast accumulation response in low light is controlled by both phot1 and phot2, while only phot2 is involved in avoidance movement induced by strong light. Phototropins elevate cytosolic Ca(2+) after activation by blue light. In higher pla...
متن کاملX-Ray microanalysis of stratified specimens
This paper presents a description of the state of the art methodology and software for the application of x-ray microanalysis to thin surface layers and more generally to the characterization of stratified specimens. The sensitivity of the technique to near-surface segregation is demonstrated. Some emphasis is given on the eS(pz) function (the distribution in depth of the primary generated x-ra...
