Popis: | An EPR study of human tooth enamel dried at 400°C is presented. Enamel blocks as well as powdered samples were investigated. The discussion deals mainly with three different spectral components, i.e., a CO 3 3- and two different CO 2 - signals. Using the anisotropic enamel block spectra, a convincing differentiation between the latter two radicals was possible. The first CO 2 - signal shows no dependence on the orientation of the enamel blocks, disappears from the spectrum upon heating, and was assigned to a surface radical. The second CO 2 - component is mainly responsible for the angular variation of the enamel blocks and is assigned to a bulk position. For the CO 3 3- ion, the (pseudo) angular variation of its isolated spectrum is presented and discussed. By means of the results presented in this study, earlier interpretation problems are considerably reduced. |
