Infra Red Spectroscopy of the Regulated Asbestos Amphiboles [PDF]
Minerals, 2018 Vibrational spectroscopies (Fourier Transform Infra Red, FTIR, and Raman) are exceptionally valuable tools for the identification and crystal–chemical study of fibrous minerals, and asbestos amphiboles in particular. Raman spectroscopy has been widely applied in toxicological studies and thus a large corpus of reference data on regulated species is ...

Raman spectroscopy for crystallochemical analysis of Mg‐rich layered silicates: Serpentine and talc
Journal of Raman Spectroscopy, Volume 54, Issue 12, Page 1502-1516, December 2023., 2023 Combined Raman‐scattering and WD‐EMP analyses of series of natural serpentine and talc minerals demonstrate that Raman spectroscopy can be used for the quantification of M‐site Mg and (Fe2+ + Mn2+) amounts in talc as well as M‐site Mg and Fe2+ contents in serpentines with relative uncertainties below 5%.

Diagnostic Cytopathology, Volume 50, Issue 11, Page 532-537, November 2022., 2022 Abstract Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is a rare but aggressive malignancy with a poor prognosis. Because of this tumor rarity and overlapping histologic features with other malignancy types, the histopathological findings and diagnostic immunohistochemical workup are essential in establishing the final diagnosis of MPMs.
