X-Ray Absorption Spectroscopy Applied to Metal Accumulation

Abstract:

X-Rays Absorption Fine Structure Spectroscopy (XAFS) is an analytical technique that can be used as a probe to characterize almost all elements, even if they appear in diluted or non-crystalline systems. This is due to the fact that the absorption probability of X-rays has a unique feature for each element, and is modulated by the chemical and physical state of that element, as well as by its neighborhood. This paper presents a brief description of the X-rays absorption phenomenon and the analytical technique involving this phenomenon, as well as the application of XAFS in biosorption studies. For more details on XAFS theory, refer to [1].
