“…The first observable peak area corresponds to the beginning of the spectra, where it corresponds to low-atomic-number (Z) elements such as Na, K, and Ca, highly abundant in marine species [ 12 , 13 , 14 , 42 , 43 ]. The last three observable peaks correspond to an area where Cu, Zn, Br, Sr, Pb, and other high-Z elements, have one of the main fluorescence peaks, with these elements also being very abundant in marine seafood samples [ 12 , 13 , 14 , 42 , 43 ]. Nevertheless, the use of specific elements instead of the full TXRF spectra greatly reduces the number of features used as input for the chemometric approaches, from several thousand to a few dozen, as it is observable between elemental analysis and other spectral fingerprinting approaches [ 40 , 43 ].…”
