Abstract

In the previous chapter, we introduced the important role played by transition metal elements in many neurodegenerative disorders and concentrated on the case of Guamanian parkinsonism-dementia complex (PDC). Synchrotron radiation-based micro-XRF and XANES analyses are ideal techniques for providing the distributions, concentrations and chemical states of trace elements. Furthermore, their non-destructiveness allows histological analysis of the samples after the elemental analysis. These features cannot be obtained by conventional techniques and represent a new approach to biomedical studies by providing quantitative information which may be of great significance in elucidating the role of intracellular trace elements. In this chapter we extend the application of SR to cases of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), Alzheimer’s disease and Friedreich Ataxia.
