    Notes: We present a method for determining the chemical speciation of metals in environmental particles based on Quick-X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy. The approach can be applied to either the extended or the near edge fine structure, and consists in the decomposition of the XAS spectrum of an unknown sample on a reference set of standards' spectra using quadratic linear programming. The analysis accounts for the statistical experimental errors generated during the acquisition of X-ray absorption data, and leads to error estimates on the various fractions determined via a Monte Carlo procedure. An application example is presented for the speciation of inorganic Zn in a contaminated sediment sample.

    Notes: Five microbes were isolated from metal amended enrichment cultures derived from the sediments of a lake contaminated by a zinc smelter. Each of these organisms was grown in pure culture in the presence of zinc. Quick Extended X-ray Absorption Fine Structure (QEXAFS) spectroscopy was used to investigate the average coordination environment of the zinc associated with the microbial biomass. Fitting of the first coordination shell of zinc shows that significant differences exist for each microbial species examined. The coordination environment of zinc varies between sulfurs to six-fold nitrogen/oxygen, with two microbial strains showing mixed coordination shells. Further study is required in order to characterize these sites and their locations within the cell.
