摘要

Histological analysis of biological structures in the avian beak is performed by means of large‐scalehigh‐resolutionmicro‐X‐ray fluorescence analysis using a Maia detector system. Element maps of S, K, Ca, Fe and Zn of square millimeter sizes show distinct cellular and subcellular tissue structures ...
