Рентген-флуоресцентний спектральний аналіз сучасних виробів для пірсингу

Abstract

Проведений спектральний рентген-флуоресцентний аналіз виробів для пірсингу. Встановлено, що елементний склад з медичного золота був представлений однаковим вмістом елементів. Спектро- фотометричний аналіз зразків сплавів показав, що найбільша кількість виробів для пірсингу була з залізного сплаву. Показано, що найменший вміст мікроелементів з високим ступенем флуоресценції спостерігається в виробах з залізного сплаву. Найбільш стабільними за хімічним спектром є вироби з титану, хірургічної сталі та медичного золота. Максимальний ступінь флуоресценції встановлено у виробах для пірсингу зі срібла; Проведен спектральный рентген-флуоресцентный анализ изделий для пирсинга. Установлено, что элементный состав изделий из медицинского золота был представлен одинаковым содержанием элементов. Спектрофотометрический анализ образцов сплавов показал, что наибольшее количество изделий для пирсинга было из железного сплава. Показано, что наибольшее содержание микроэлементов с высокой степенью флуоресценции наблюдается в изделиях из железного сплава. Наиболее стабильными по химическому спектру являются изделия из титана, хирургической стали и медицинского золота. Максимальная степень флуоресценции установлена в изделиях для пирсинга из серебра; X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy of piercing products was carried out. It revealed that the elemental composition of product samples made of medical gold included the same content of elements. Spectrophotometric analysis of alloy samples detected that the largest number of piercing products was made of an iron alloy. It is shown that the largest content of microelements with a high degree of fluorescence is observed in products made of an iron alloy. Titanium, surgical steel and medical gold products are the most stable ones by their chemical spectrum. The maximum degree of fluorescence was found out in piercing products made of silver. X-ray fluorescence (XRF) analytical technique plays a great part in modern medical researches because this method is not invasive, thereby making possible a multivariate analysis, which is notable for its high spectral selectivity to the elements revealed in specimens. An important feature of this technique consists in the fact that the specimens can be liquid, solid, in the form of gels and films. Besides, this method differs from others by the accuracy and rapidity of its detections, easy preparation of specimens as well as possible simultaneous detection of a wide range of elements and availability. XRF is widely used practically in all fields of science and technology, including medicine and biology. It is used in analyzing steels and alloys. Thanks to existence of portable spectrometers this technique is particularly essential for analyzing different materials in situ. The method of XRF is based on registration of the typical fluorescent radiation of elements resulting from irradiation of the tested specimen with help of an external source of X radiation. Chemical elements are identified by the position of fluorescent radiation lines thereby making possible qualitative analysis. At present, owing to such its advantages as rapid detections, easy preparation of specimens for testing that does not require any sample spreading, wide ranges of elements and possible detection of all elements in one sample XRF is promising in specimen analyses and widely used in medicine. XRF makes possible solution of a wide range of analytical problems, which the modern medicine faces, namely: detection of microelements, when their role in different diseases is examined; study of the effect of environmental contamination on human health; detection of toxic metals for preventing diseases. Hence, an important task consists in detection of the complex of basic elements, typical for piercing products, namely titanium, iron, lead, copper, etc., thereby making possible more reasonable conclusions concerning their effect on skin dysbiosis in the pierced region and duration of wound healing after piercing manipulations. Revealing of the qualitative and quantitative content of metals, used for making products for piercing, can together with other laboratory methods of examination facilitate prevention of the pyoinflammatory process in the pierced region and restoration of microbiocenosis in the auricular skin.
