Storage phosphors

Manufactured by Fujifilm

Sourced in Japan

Storage phosphors are a type of material used in digital imaging systems. They are capable of absorbing and storing energy from radiation, such as X-rays or ultraviolet light, and then releasing that energy as light when stimulated. This stored energy can be read and processed to create digital images.

Evaluating Osteoblast-Derived Apatite Crystals

Apatite crystals produced by primary osteoblasts were evaluated using a microbeam X‐ray diffraction system (R‐Axis BQ, Rigaku) with a transmission optical system (Mo‐Kα radiation, 0.71 Å, 50 kV, and 90 mA) and an imaging plate (storage phosphors, Fuji Film) placed behind the samples. Detailed conditions for measurement have been previously described.⁴¹, ⁴⁸, ⁴⁹ Presently, the incident beam was focused at φ 800 μm, and diffraction data were collected for 1,200 s. The samples (n = 5) for evaluation of the calcified tissues (cultured for 6 weeks) were fixed with 4% formaldehyde in PBS for 20 min. The preferred orientation of the apatite c‐axis was assessed as the relative intensity ratio of the 002 diffraction peak to the 310 peak, which was measured in parallel to the collector rotation direction of the scaffolds. The intensities of the 002 and 310 peaks obtained from the reconstructed patterns were obtained using a multipeak fitting package (Igor Pro, WaveMetrics).

Crystallographic Orientation Analysis of Apatite

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols

The crystallographic orientation of apatite crystallites was analyzed by the μXRD system (R-Axis BQ, Rigaku, Tokyo, Japan), which is equipped with a transmission-type optical system and an imaging plate (storage phosphors) (Fuji Film, Tokyo, Japan), at 9 points (regular intervals of 1/10 of the bone length along the longitudinal axis) of cortical bone in femurs as previously described [40 (link)] with a minor modification in that the incident beam was focused on a beam spot of 300 μm in diameter and diffraction data were collected for 180 sec. The preferential orientation degree of the BAp c-axis was assessed as the relative intensity ratio of the (002) diffraction peak to the (310) peak in the X-ray profile.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
