Carbon Isotopic Chemistry [PDF]
Isotopic molecular abundances are used to interpret Galactic chemical evolution and the properties of interstellar clouds. The isotopic chemistry of carbon plays an important role in the interpretation of these measurements. This paper reviews the recent measurements of the carbon twelve to thirteen ratio across the Galaxy and the isotopic chemistry.

BACKGROUND Organic carbon and nitrogen stable isotopes (δ13C, δ15N) in marine sediments are used as effective indicators to trace the changes of air, temperature, precipitation and other parameters in different geological time. Elemental analysis-isotope

Carbon isotopic fractionation in molecular clouds [PDF]
Context. Carbon fractionation has been studied from a theoretical point of view with different models of time-dependent chemistry, including both isotope-selective photodissociation and low-temperature isotopic exchange reactions. Aims. Recent chemical models predict that isotopic exchange reactions may lead to a depletion of 13C in nitrile-bearing ...

Dry season limnological conditions and basin geology exhibit complex relationships with δ13C and δ15N of carbon sources in four Neotropical floodplains. [PDF]
Studies in freshwater ecosystems are seeking to improve understanding of carbon flow in food webs and stable isotopes have been influential in this work.

Isotopes in pyrogenic carbon: A review [PDF]
Pyrogenic carbon (PC; also known as biochar, charcoal, black carbon and soot) derived from natural and anthropogenic burning plays a major, but poorly quantified, role in the global carbon cycle. Isotopes provide a fundamental fingerprint of the source of PC and a powerful tracer of interactions between PC and the environment.

Modern Strategies for Carbon Isotope Exchange
AbstractIn contrast to stable and natural abundant carbon‐12, the synthesis of organic molecules with carbon (radio)isotopes must be conceived and optimized in order to navigate through the hurdles of radiochemical requirements, such as high costs of the starting materials, harsh conditions and radioactive waste generation.

A pilot study of stable isotope fractionation in Bombyx mori rearing
Hydrogen, oxygen, carbon, and nitrogen isotopes derived from three different strains of silkworms at different life stages involved in silkworm rearing, were measured to understand the fractionation characteristics of stable isotopes at different stages ...
