ABSTRACT
Inorganic deposits in the wall of human and animal arteries and in experimental tumor (Morris hepatoma 7777) were examined using proton induced X-ray emission (PIXE) and PIXE in combination with proton microprobe (micro-PIXE) techniques. The sections adjacent to the irradiated ones part were submitted to histological investigations and one part of the material was additionally investigated by infrared (IR) spectroscopy. For identification of mineral deposits, the micro-PIXE method appeared the most sensitive. The mineral deposits were detected in the artery samples, even in those without visible morphological changes, as well as in tumor samples. The deposites showed different localization and composition, depending on age and type of vessel. There were also differences between human and animal arteries. IR spectroscopy revealed the presence of carbonate apatite within the artery samples from old individuals. Matching of histological observations with data obtained by micro-PIXE method allows a better correlation of morphological and analytical results.
