Oxygen stable isotopes (i.e., 16O, 17O, 18O) of nitrite (NO2−) are useful for investigating chemical processes and sources contributing to this important environmental contaminant and nutrient. However, it remains difficult to quantify the oxygen isotope

Research Progress on Spatiotemporal Distribution Characteristics of Carbon Stable Isotopes in Wines from New and Old World Countries [PDF]
With the continuous development of economic globalization, the production and consumption of wine in New and Old World countries have shown a steady growth trend. Wines of different grades and styles have been developed, which are related to geographical

A Preliminary Study to Determine the Hydrogen and Oxygen Isotopic Compositions of Natural and Bottled Water using High Sensitivity Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometry [PDF]
In this study, we introduce the stable isotopic results of water using a recently installed high sensitivity isotope ratio mass spectrometry (HS-IRMS) system at the Korea Institute of Geoscience and Mineral Resources (KIGAM).

Stable Isotope Ratios and Forensic Analysis of Microorganisms [PDF]
ABSTRACTIn the aftermath of the anthrax letters of 2001, researchers have been exploring various analytical signatures for the purpose of characterizing the production environment of microorganisms. One such signature is stable isotope ratios, which in heterotrophs, are a function of nutrient and water sources. Here we discuss the use of stable isotope

Stable Sr isotope (88Sr/86Sr) fractionation in calcite precious corals
Stable isotope ratios of Sr (88Sr/86Sr) are a novel indicator for identifying terrestrial and oceanic Sr cycling and biological processes. Here we evaluate the temperature dependence of stable Sr isotope ratios (δ88Sr) in the calcite skeletons of ...

Equations for lipid normalization of carbon stable isotope ratios in aquatic bird eggs. [PDF]
Stable isotope ratios are biogeochemical tracers that can be used to determine the source of nutrients and contaminants in avian eggs. However, the interpretation of stable carbon ratios in lipid-rich eggs is complicated because (13)C is depleted in ...

To broaden the range of measurable pesticides for stable isotope analysis (SIA), we tested whether SIA of the anthranilic diamides cyantraniliprole (CYN) and chlorantraniliprole (CHL) can be achieved under elemental analyzer/isotope ratio mass ...
