To improve the image contrast in X-ray transmission micrographs of organisms, a fine focus sealed-off tube with a titanium target has been built, which can produce quasi monochromatic X-rays at the Ka characteristic wavelength of 2.7 A. The intensity ratio of the characteristic ray to continuous ones reaches a maximum when a voltage of 8 kV is applied to the tube. Micrographs of organisms obtained with this tube show up a better image contrast than those taken with a copper-anode tube.
