The utilization of X‐ray microradiography and laser induced breakdown spectroscopy techniques for investigation of the metal accumulation in different part of leaf samples and the potential of the LIBS‐analysis for finding the proper plant species for phytoremediation is compared.Abstract:
This article reports on the utilization of X-ray microradiography and laser induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) techniques for investigation of the metal accumulation in different part of leaf samples. The potential of the LIBS-analysis for finding the proper plant species for phytoremediation is compared with the results of microradiography measurements at the HERCULES source at ENEA, Rome (Italy) and X-ray microradiography experiments at the ELETTRA Synchrotron, Trieste (Italy).read more

TL;DR: The results showed the suitability of chlorophyll fluorescence as a parameter and appropriateness of LIBS technique and anatomical procedures to elucidate Si-mediated alleviation of Cr(VI) toxicity, and suggest that the measured parameters and techniques can be used non-invasively for monitoring the growth of crops under different environmental conditions.
