Abstract

Owing to its exceptional elemental analysis capabilities, X-ray spectroscopy is a potent analytical instrument that has transformed biological research. This method is essential for comprehending intricate biological processes and is used in the analysis of biological specimens. Applications include identifying trace elements in tissues, deciphering biomolecules' structural features, and learning about the workings of enzymes. Through comprehensive insights into the elemental composition and structural characteristics of biological samples, X-ray spectroscopy advances our understanding of nutrient physiology, phytotoxicity, heavy metal buildup, and adulterations in the field of agriculture.
