Environmental Analytical Chemistry Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A lab that uses X-rays to read minerals made by living organisms, such as shells and teeth.
AboutAbout the lab
Reading the environment of formation from the state of elements
The Environmental Analytical Chemistry Lab uses X-rays to analyze substances found in Earth's surface environment and in living organisms.
The chemical state and crystal structure of an element vary greatly depending on the environment in which the substance formed.
Using nondestructive speciation analysis with X-rays, the lab reads the chemical forms of elements and aims to clarify the environments and mechanisms in which substances formed.
In the laboratory, samples are sometimes also synthesized through chemical procedures.
Key terms
- Nondestructive speciation analysis
- Analysis that examines the chemical state of the elements in a sample without destroying it.
- Chemical form
- The kind of compound or bonding form in which an element exists.
- Biomineral
- A mineral produced by living organisms, such as shells, teeth, and pearls.
ResearchResearch themes
The lab uses X-rays to read the chemical forms of elements in diverse substances found in Earth's surface environment and in living organisms. It aims to deepen understanding of both natural substances and those synthesized in the laboratory.
