| Abstract | In this work, the three-dimensional elemental, distribution profile within the freshwater crustacean Ceriodaphnia dubia was constructed at a spatial resolution down to S mu m via a data, fusion approach employing state-of-the-art laser ablation inductively coupled plasma-time-of-flight mass spectrometry (LAICP-TOFMS) and laboratory-based absorption microcomputed tomography (mu-CT). C. dubia was exposed to elevated Cu, Ni, and Zn concentrations, chemically fixed, dehydrated, stained, and embedded, prior to mu-CT analysis. Subsequently, the sample was cut into 5 pm thin sections that were subjected to LA-ICPTOFMS imaging. Multimodal image registration was performed to spatially align the 2D LA-ICP-TOFMS images relative to the Corresponding slices of the 3D mu-CT reconstruction. Mass channels corresponding to the isotopes of a single element were merged to improve the signal-to-noise ratios within the elemental images. In order to aid the visual interpretation of the data, LA-ICP-TOEMS data wete projected onto the mu-CT voxels representing tissue. Additionally, the image resolution and elemental sensitivity were compared to those obtained with synchrotron radiation based 3D confocal mu-X-ray fluorescence imaging upon a chemically fixed and air-dried C. dubia specimen. |
