Abstract

The TwinMic beamline at Elettra synchrotron has been active in the past few decades in research fields such as medicine, pharmacology, toxicology and environmental science, offering combined scanning transmission X-ray and X-ray fluorescence microscopy. Here, we present the recent advances of TwinMic in performing micro X-ray absorption near edge spectroscopy on biological specimens.
