How can stable isotopes trace pollution sources?
Author(s)Thermo Fisher Scientific
With isotope fingerprints sources of pollution, monitor water and air quality and track environmental change across space and time can be traced. Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometry detects the “isotope fingerprint” of a sample, a unique chemical signature that changes from sample to sample across the environment.
