Synchrotron-based X-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) spectroscopy is a relatively new technique within the life sciences. XANES has been utilized to identify the location, oxidation state and spatial distribution of heavy metal elements in plants , neurons, blood and DNA, but has not been widely used in the animal sciences. Selenium content in animal feeds is monitored, as both selenium deficiencies and toxicities are associated with physiological disorders. Selenium is available as an animal feed in both inorganic and organic states. The bioavailability of selenium species has been tested in numerous animal trials; however, a simple, non-destructive test for selenium speciation is not available. The objective of this study was to determine whether XANES spectroscopy could be used to determine the selenium oxidation state found in various commercial animal feed products. A comparison of absorption spectra indicated that the animal mineral supplements contained an organoselenium or selenite. The processed animal feeds had a spectral profile similar to that of elemental selenium. Further experiments are necessary to determine the implication of selenium speciation on animal physiology. Key words: Selenium speciation, mineral supplements, ruminants, non-ruminants, synchrotron, XANES, X-ray

AbstractThe L-edge X-ray Absorption Near Edge Structure (XANES) is widely used in the characterization of transition metal compounds. Here, we report the development of a database of computed L-edge XANES using the multiple scattering theory-based FEFF9 code. The initial release of the database contains more than 140,000 L-edge spectra for more than 22,000 structures generated using a high-throughput computational workflow. The data is disseminated through the Materials Project and addresses a critical need for L-edge XANES spectra among the research community.

Phosphorus (P) K-edge X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) spectra of orthophosphate (oPO4) bound to soil FeIII minerals (e.g. ferrihydrite, goethite) show a pre-edge signal at 2148–2152 eV. It is unknown whether organic P bound to FeIII oxyhydroxides also show this feature. Otherwise, Fe-bound soil P may be underestimated by P K-edge XANES spectroscopy, because a large portion of Fe oxyhydroxide-bound P in soils is organic P. K-edge XANES spectra were obtained for different organic P compounds present in soils [inositol hexaphosphate (IHP), glucose-6-phosphate (G6P), adenosine triphosphate (ATP)] after sorption to ferrihydrite or goethite and compared with spectra of oPO4 adsorbed to these minerals. P sorption to ferrihydrite increased in the sequence IHP ≪ G6P < oPO4 < ATP. P sorption to goethite increased in the sequence G6P < oPO4 ≪ ATP = IHP. Pre-edge signals in P K-edge XANES spectra of organic P adsorbed to Fe oxyhydroxides were markedly smaller compared with those of oPO4 adsorbed to these minerals and absent for FeIII oxyhydroxide-bound ATP as well as goethite-bound IHP. Linear combination fitting (LCF) performed on spectra of IHP, G6P or ATP adsorbed to ferrihydrite or goethite, using only spectra of FeIII oxyhydroxide-bound oPO4 as reference compounds for Fe-bound P, erroneously assigned >93% (ferrihydrite) or >41% (goethite) of Fe-bound P to non-Fe-bound P species. Inclusion of FeIII oxyhydroxide-bound IHP as reference compounds markedly increased the recovery of oxyhydroxide-bound organic P. Thus, Fe-bound soil P has probably often been underestimated by LCF in soil XANES studies where IHP adsorbed to ferrihydrite and to goethite were not included as reference compounds.
