Isotope analysis, and in particular compound‐specific stable isotope analysis (CSIA), has emerged as an indispensable tool in the investigation of environmental biodegradation. By measuring the subtle ...

The compositional analysis of wine, which encompasses multi-element profiling and stable isotope investigations, has rapidly evolved into a vital instrument for establishing provenance, confirming ...

Isotopic analysis primarily involves the separation of isotopes based on the significant differences in mass. The method is effective for identifying the isotopic signature within the inorganic and ...

The city of Pompeii was buried by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in AD 79. Researchers at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz ...

Archaeologists at UC Santa Cruz used predictive modeling to map strontium isotope ratios across all of modern-day Angola, a region in Southwest Africa that was once a major hub for the transatlantic ...

Illegal logging is a highly profitable natural resource crime, estimated to be worth between US$52 billion and US$157 billion annually. This illicit activity involves the unauthorized harvesting and ...

This GC-IRMS system is configured to perform compound-specific isotope analysis of compounds that are separable via gas chromatography, and can measure either δ 2 H or δ 13 C.

This study is undertaken by the research teams led by Prof. Hu Yaowu from the Department of Cultural Heritage and Museology and Institute of Archaeological Science at the Fudan University, and led by ...

Mg isotope compositions of some typical geological standard samples measured by the DS method and the SSB method in different laboratories. The sample-standard-bracketing (SSB) method and double-spike ...

Oxygen isotopes data enable researchers to look far back into the geologic past and reconstruct the climate of the past. In ...

Some of the world’s earliest cities were built about 7,000 years ago by Trypillia societies in what today we call Ukraine and Moldova. Archaeologists have long wondered how these densely settled ...

Stable isotope analysis suggests that, before Roman aqueducts, residents of the city may have soaked in dirty water ...
