Biological and medical application of SR from the storage rings of VEPP-3 and "Siberia-2". The origin of specific changes of small-angle X-ray diffraction pattern of hair and their correlation with the elemental content
Am. Aksirov et al., Biological and medical application of SR from the storage rings of VEPP-3 and "Siberia-2". The origin of specific changes of small-angle X-ray diffraction pattern of hair and their correlation with the elemental content, NUCL INST A, 470(1-2), 2001, pp. 380-387
X-ray diffraction and fluorescent investigations of human hair were carried
Out using SR of VEPP-3. The small-angle techniques were used for ecologica
l monitoring and medical diagnostics of pathological states of human organi
sms with the usage of non-invasive methods for express analysis of biologic
al objects, including human and animal tissues: nails, wool and hair sample
s.
Possibility using of hair fibre diffraction to test for pathological condit
ions is the subject of this paper. X-ray diffraction data allowed us to sup
pose the two-component structural model or the hair tissue. (C) 2001 Elsevi
