Table 3.

The iron x-ray edge positions (eV) for the mouse brain specimens and the protein and mineral standards. Due to differences in pre-edge features between the standards and tissue samples, X-ray edge energies for all spectra were defined as the energy at the half-max of the edge jump in the normalized data.

Specimen Iron Edge Energy (eV)
Mouse brain 7122.8
Ferredoxin 7120.4
Magnetite 7122.2
Cytochrome c 7123.5
Myoglobin 7124.0
Ferritin 7124.0
