This facile, stable and scanningless set-up was tested at the BAMline @ BESSY-II (Berlin, Germany). The primary broadband beam is generated by a filter/X-ray-mirror combination (bandpass). The transmitted beam through the sample is diffracted by a convexly bent Si (111) crystal, producing a divergent beam. This, in turn, is collected by an area sensitive detector based on a CCD camera, in a theta - 2 theta geometry. The first in situ measurements were successfully carried out and hereby presented. The case-study involved a well known reaction, in which structural changes are induced over time, and continuously measured. We were able to track structural changes within a 1s time resolution.

T1 - Following Pt in gold Byzantine tesserae: towards provenance and chronology with SR-XRF N2 - Gold mosaics, made from gold and glass, are one of the best expressions of Late Antique Byzantine and Early Islamic art. The gold alloys, whose composition seems to indicate that gold coins were re-used to fabricate the tesserae, can be used to provide information on the mosaics chronology. Monetary Byzantine gold is in fact characterized by the presence of Pt, which contents in the gold alloy change over time, but Pt must be measured in 0.2-0.4 µm thickness gold leaves that were beaten to be sandwiched between two glass layers. To analyze this samples the D²XRF set-up at the BAMline at the BESSY synchrotron in Berlin was used. The combination of a crystal for wavelength dispersion and an energy resolving single photon counting pnCCD allows the realization of this very simple wavelength dispersive detection system. With this system an MDL of 1 μg/g for the determination of Pt in Au under optimal conditions can be reached. Gold leaf tesserae from nine archaeological sites, covering the period that goes from the 5th c. to the 8th c., were analyzed. The presence of Pt in the majority of the samples confirmed the re-use of coins. The Pt contents separate the samples in three groups, one of which having the same chemical characteristics as the Byzantine gold could be compared to dated coins for chronology. The higher Pt contents for one of other groups suggest T2 - Synchrotron Radiation and Neutrons in Art & Archaeology (SR2A) CY - Chicago, USA DA - 06.09.2016 KW - Synchrotron KW - BAMline KW - XRF KW - Archaeometry KW - D2XRF PY - 2016 AN - OPUS4-38808 LA - eng AD - Bundesanstalt fuer Materialforschung und -pruefung (BAM), Berlin, Germany ER - TY - CONF A1 - Mäder, M.

Jahrhunderts gegründete Dresdener Goldschmiedeinnung, geriet im 19. Jahrhundert in wirtschaftliche Schwierigkeiten, was letztendlich zu ihrer Auflösung führte. Im Zuge dessen wurde 1872 auch der historische Innungspokal für 80 Taler an das Grüne Gewölbe in Dresden verkauft. Sowohl das Empfehlungsschreiben des damaligen Direktors als auch die Zustimmung zum zügigen Ankauf dürften Beleg dafür sein, dass man damals der festen Überzeugung war, ein etwa 250 Jahre altes, authentisches Silbergefäß erworben zu haben. Die aktuelle kunstwissenschaftliche Begutachtung des Innungspokals lässt begründete Fragen zum Alter und zur Originalität des Objektes, welches heute in der Sammlung des Grünen Gewölbes präsentiert wird, aufkommen. Die kunst-wissenschaftliche und kunsttechnologische Expertise reicht hier allein ftir eine gesicherte Altersbestimmung nicht aus und soll deshalb durch naturwissenschaftliche Untersuchungen zur Materialzusammensetzung unterstützt werden.

To study the elemental distribution, human Wilson´s disease liver samples were analyzed by means of LA-ICP-MS. Results demonstrated an inhomogeneous copper and iron distribution in human liver with hotspots of very high intensities. Both elements were quantified by an external calibration using matrix-matched standards made of gelatin, showing concentrations up to several thousand micrograms per gram. Additionally, results were validated by means of synchrotron radiation based μXRF at the BAMline at BESSYII (Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin).

T1 - Investigating Wilson´s disease by elemental bioimaging and speciation analysis using LA-ICP-MS, μXRF and XANES N2 - Wilson´s disease (WD) is a rare genetic disorder of the copper metabolism, causing the accumulation of copper in different organs, including the liver, the central nervous system and cornea. This way, WD initiates manifold hepatic, neurological or psychiatric symptoms. To learn about the elemental distribution and present species in WD, liver samples were analyzed by laser ablation-inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS), micro X-ray fluorescence (μXRF) and X-ray absorption near edge structure spectroscopy (XANES). Within this work, LA-ICP-MS was applied to study the distribution of copper and iron in human liver samples, which were collected by a liver biopsy of WD and control patients within a medical investigation. The analysis by LA-ICP-MS was performed with a 213 nm Nd:YAG laser using a spatial resolution of 10 μm and a scan rate of 20 μm/s. In a next step, copper and iron were quantified by LA-ICP-MS using homemade matrix-matched standards made of gelatin. Results showed an inhomogeneous copper and iron distribution in human liver with hotspots up to several thousand micrograms per gram liver within the hepatocytes. Additionally, results for the elemental distribution in WD were validated by means of synchrotron radiation-based μXRF with a beam size of 4 μm at the BAMline at BESSYII (Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin). Furthermore, XANES was performed to identify the present oxidation states of copper in WD, indicating a mixture of copper(I) and copper(II) within the liver tissue. In the contemporary medicine, rhodanine staining is routinely used to determine the copper distribution in liver tissues. Nevertheless, this method does not provide results with a high sensitivity in comparison to LA-ICP-MS. Therefore, the presented LA-ICP-MS method offers a new possible diagnostic tool. These results may also contribute to a better understanding of Wilson´s disease and its development.

T1 - SR-TXRF-XANES of indoor aerosol samples at BESSY II and ELETTRA N2 - Airborne particulate matter is an issue of growing concern in industrialized countries. Particles with diameters of less than 10 μm, in particular those with less 2.5 μm, are of special concern, as they can enter the human lungs and contribute to various cardiovascular and respiratory diseases. As the composition and health effects of airborne particles in urban, rural and industrial outdoor air has been studied abundantly, our focus lies on the analysis of airborne particle samples collected indoors, which may also have a significant effect on human health, depending on the chemical composition of the particles and the chemical bonding state, in which elements are present. This chemical speciation can be obtained using X-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) analysis, which requires a tunable excitation source and therefore has to be carried out at synchrotron facilities. For this work, samples were collected in office rooms of the Atominstitut building. The BAMline at BESSYII, Berlin, features a double-multilayer monochromator (DMM) and a double-crystal monochromator (DCM). The DCM offers an energy resolution E/ΔE of around 103, which makes it suitable for X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) applications. The Atominstitut SR-TXRF vacuum chamber, formerly located at HASYLAB, Beamline L, is now available at the BAMline. The chamber offers a sample changer for up to 8 quartz carriers suitable for total reflection X-ray fluorescence analysis (TXRF) and was equipped with a 30 mm² silicon drift detector (SDD). Aerosol samples were produced using a modified three-stage Dekati™ impactor. For this work, only the coarse (2.5 to 10 μm, Stage 2) and the fine particle fraction (1 to 2.5 μm, Stage 3), were of interest. XANES analysis was performed for the elements Cr, Cu and Zn. Oxidation states of these 3 elements will be presented. The X-ray Fluorescence beamline at ELETTRA operates in partnership with the IAEA an ultra-high vacuum instrument with a 7-axis manipulator suitable for a variety of X-ray analytical techniques, such as grazing incidence X-ray fluorescence analysis (GI-XRF), TXRF, X-ray reflectometry (XRR) and XANES. Samples were produced using a four-stage Sioutas Personal Cascade Impactor. With this impactor, it is possible to produce sizefractionated samples down to the sub-μm range (Stages: A > 2.5 μm, B 1 to 2.5 μm, C 0.5 to 1 μm and D 0.25 to 0.5 μm). Direct sampling was performed on siliconized 25 mm Si wafers suitable for TXRF. Cu-K edge SR-TXRF-XANES analysis was carried out for samples of all impactor stages. Results of these experiments will be shown.
