Abstract:The proton induced X-ray emission method in combination with a proton microprobe was applied to study the intramembranaceous ossification. As material sections of mouse embryo skulls from the 17th and 19th day of gestation were used. The morphology of the sample was examined by routine histochemical procedure performed on the sections adjacent to that irradiated by the proton microprobe. The measurements were made in line scan and raster scan mode. The concentrations of P, S, Cl, K, Ca, Fe and Zn were determin… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
