Article: X-ray fluorescence with synchrotron radiation to elemental analysis of lead and calcium content of primary teeth.
[show abstract] [hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Primary teeth were analyzed by micro-SRXRF. The aim of this study was to determine the elemental distribution of lead and calcium in different regions of primary incisor of children living in a notoriously contaminated area (Santo Amaro da Purificação, Bahia State, Brazil). The measurements were performed in standard geometry of 45 degrees incidence, exciting with a white beam and using a conventional system collimation (orthogonal slits) in the XRF beamline at the Synchrotron Light National Laboratory (Campinas, Brazil).Applied radiation and isotopes: including data, instrumentation and methods for use in agriculture, industry and medicine 09/2009; 68(1):71-5. · 1.09 Impact Factor
