Proposal for International Agreement on Ca Notation resulting from discussion at workshops on stable isotope measurement held in Davos (Goldschmidt 2002) and Nice (EGS-AGU-EUG 2003) [PDF]
A proposal is made to standardise the reporting of Ca isotope data to the δ44Ca/40Ca notation (or δ44Ca/42Ca) and to adopt NIST SRM 915a as the reference ...

Detection of Epitestosterone Doping by Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometry [PDF]
AbstractBackground: Epitestosterone is prohibited by sport authorities because its administration will lower the urinary testosterone/epitestosterone ratio, a marker of testosterone administration. A definitive method for detecting epitestosterone administration is needed.Methods: We developed a gas chromatography-combustion-isotope ratio mass ...

Isotope determination of sulfur by mass spectrometry in soil samples
Sulphur plays an essential role in plants and is one of the main nutrients in several metabolic processes. It has four stable isotopes (32S, 33S, 34S, and 36S) with a natural abundance of 95.00, 0.76, 4.22, and 0.014 in atom %, respectively. A method for
