Abstract
Auger electron spectroscopy was used to detect calcium and phosphorus of cortical bone from rat femoral neck and rear tibia. Spectra were taken from bone pieces as well as from disks prepared from grinded bone material. Experimental conditions were found whereby the samples could be analyzed without conductive coatings. The results of this preliminary investigation demonstrate that Auger electron spectroscopy can be used to study bone mineral elements.
