SEM-EDS Analysis of the Elemental Composition of Biominerals

The SEM-EDS service is a powerful tool for localized, high-precision trace element analysis of biological samples with high-resolution surface imaging.

As part of the analysis, SEM provides detailed visualization of the deposit site, while the integrated EDS system performs elemental mapping directly on the microarea under examination. This makes it possible to accurately determine the chemical nature of the deposits, assess their homogeneity, and quantitatively determine the content of key elements (Ca, P, Fe, etc.) at specific points within the sample.

SEM-EDS is indispensable in the study of biominerals (calcites, oxalates, apatites), localized metal accumulations in tissues, and in forensic science, particularly in the analysis of fibers, paints, glass particles, or gunshot residue.

We offer this type of analysis either as a standalone analytical service or as part of a comprehensive sample analysis.

To ensure proper planning of the study, please provide information on the type of samples, the expected particle size range, the material or chemical nature of the system, the type of dispersion (suspension, emulsion, colloidal system, etc.), as well as the purpose of the analysis. Our specialists will help you select the optimal measurement method and analysis conditions based on your specific needs.
