Abstract:
Pathologic mineralization in the human body may produce severe morbidity. Application of mineralogic methods of investigation makes possible closer cognizance of this process, and facilitates prophylaxis and treatment. The principles and employment of following methods are discussed: polarized light microscopy, transmission and scanning electron microscopy, infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, atomic absorption spectroscopy, electron microprobe, and neutron activation analysis.

01:03Fixation and Sectioning
Two basic types of preparation are used to visualize specimens with a light microscope: wet mounts and fixed specimens.
The simplest type of preparation is the wet mount, in which the specimen is placed in a drop of liquid on the slide. A liquid specimen can be directly deposited on the slide using a dropper. Solid specimens, such as skin scraping, can be placed on the slide before adding a drop of liquid to prepare the wet mount. Sometimes the liquid is simply water, but stains are often added...

01:08Sample Preparation for Analysis: Advanced Techniques
Accurate analysis of complex samples often requires advanced preparation techniques to achieve reliable and reproducible results. Samples containing inorganic or organic materials can be challenging to dissolve or decompose effectively. Standard sample preparation methods include acid digestion, fusion, dry ashing, and wet digestion.
Acid digestion with strong acids is commonly used to dissolve inorganic materials that are insoluble (do not dissolve) in water. This method can be useful for...
