Youāll find plenty of application notes on our new website, including this brand new one: š 13C in Hair (dog and human) and Fingernail Keratin by LA IRMS
Measuring š 13C in hair and fingernail keratin helps reconstruct life histories by revealing dietary patterns (specifically the balance between C3 and C4 plants). This analysis is widely applied in archaeology, anthropology, and forensic science to trace dietary habits in both ancient and modern human and animal populations. Applying the technique of LA IRMS to this application offers unique advantages in terms of temporal resolution and repeat measurements increasing data confidence.
