(a) A representation of two-dimensional scanning SAXS data, with each pixel containing a two-dimensional SAXS frame. (b) An azimuthally integrated SAXS profile, with a zoom on the first meridional reflection of collagen in the inset. (c) An azimuthally integrated WAXS profile, with a zoom of the 002 and 210 reflections of HA in the inset. (d) Two-dimensional SAXS microscopy mapping the first meridional reflection of collagen at Δq1 = 0.0090–0.0119 Å−1 (52.9–69.6 nm). (e) Two-dimensional WAXS microscopy mapping the 002 peak of the HA component at Δq3 = 1.8051–1.9061 Å−1 (0.330–348 nm); (f) Two-dimensional WAXS microscopy mapping the 210 peak of the HA component at Δq4 = 2.0358−2.1050 Å−1 (0.309–0.299 nm). The scale bar length in the microscopy images is 1 mm. The color wheel designates the SAXS orientation for each pixel of the maps in (d), (e) and (f). |
