Abstract:
Ion microscopy, based on secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS), is a unique isotopic imaging technique. The use of stable isotopes as tracers and their SIMS localization at a subcellular resolution has introduced a significant new approach for molecular localization and ion transport studies. A molecule of interest may be tagged with stable 2H, 13C, 15N, etc. and imaged with SIMS for its intracellular location. Stable isotopes of physiologically important elements such as calcium and magnesium provide excellent tracers for ion transport imaging studies with SIMS. in a recent study with 44Ca,

Abstract:
Calcium ions were made to electromigrate along a cation exchange membrane. The abundance ratios of the calcium isotopes (Ca-40, 42, 43, 44, 48) in the migrated bands were measured by thermo-ionization mass spectrometry. The lighter isotopes were enriched in the front part of the migrated band. The increments in the isotope abundance ratios were found to be proportional to the mass differences of the isotopes. The observed e-values per unit mass difference (ε/ΔM) were 1.26 x 10-4 (at 20 °C), 1.85 x 10-4 (at 25 °C) and 2.4 x 10-4 (at 40 °C). The mass spectrometry was improved by using a low temp

Abstract:
Stable isotopes of calcium are used safely as tracers for calcium in human populations ranging in age from infants to postmenopausal women. Thermal ionization mass spectrometry is used to measure calcium isotope ratios with relative accuracies of about 1% for natural abundance ratios at precisions of about 1% relative to the mean. Perturbations of natural abundance ratios are determined for the calcium in blood, urine, and feces with a limit of detection of about 2 Δ% excess.

Calcium isotopes of carbonate rocks can trace calcium cycles and record changes in the marine environment.

The atmospheric partial pressure of CO2 (pCO2) is the key driver of climate variability. Boron isotopic compositions (δ11B) of marine calcium carbonates reveal pCO2 of the geologic past because boron isotope incorporation is sensitive to seawater pH, which closely reflects atmospheric pCO2. Biocarbonate δ11B values record environmental pH through a metabolic prism (so called “vital effects”), sometimes complicating interpretations. However, biocarbonate boron isotopes, coupled with boron concentrations (B/Ca), can also reveal the processes of calcification. Here, we review the link between sea

ABSTRACT The Dam Formation in Qatar is a series consisting of calcareous (calcite, dolomite) and evaporitic sediments (gypsum, celestite) that developed under subtidal through supratidal conditions passing towards younger and older series in an environment of deposition more akin to modern beach deposits. In the present study 87Sr/86Sr ratios, δ44/40Ca and δ44/42Ca data are discussed together with δ13C and δ18O values obtained during an environmental analysis carried out previously. Rather uniform isotope curves of the Sr, Ca and O isotopes for tidal deposits are replaced by more oscillating o

Abstract. A deeper understanding of past atmospheric circulation variability in the Central Andes is a high-priority topic in paleoclimatology mainly because of the necessity to validate climate models used to predict future precipitation trends and to develop mitigation and/or adaptation strategies for future climate change scenarios in this region. Within this context, we here investigate an 18-year firn core drilled at Nevado Illimani in order to interpret its mineral dust record in relation to seasonal processes, in particular atmospheric circulation and deep convection. The core was dated

Abstract:
Radiocarbon ages of calcium oxalate that occurs naturally on rock surfaces have been used recently in archaeological and paleoenvironmental studies. Oxalate rock coatings are found globally, with most appearing to be residues from epilithic lichens. To explore the source(s) of carbon used by these organisms for the production of oxalate we measured the natural abundances of 14C and 13C in 5 oxalate-producing lichen species, 3 growing on limestone in southwestern Texas and 2 on sandstone in Arkansas. We also examined the distribution of the isotopes between the calcium oxalate and lichen tissue

Abstract:
Many non-traditional isotopes, such as chlorine, magnesium, calcium, etc., are widely used as groundwater tracers. A new sample processing protocol of purification and concentration for isotopic analysis is presented to overcome many of the major drawbacks of existing methods. Contemporary sample preparation often requires several laborious off-line procedures in a ultra clean laboratory prior to instrumental determination; additionally, interference ions in real samples are difficult to completely remove, especially when the concentration of those ions is equal to that of the target ions.

Abstract:
Calcium carbonate hexahydrate (ikaite) is a rare mineral that forms as metastable species in the organic-carbon-rich sediments of the King George Basin, Bransfield Strait, Antarctica, as a consequence of early diagenetic decomposition of organic matter under cold water (−1.4 °C) and high pressure (200 bar) conditions. Large crystals grow in the sediment immediately below the diagenetic transition between microbial sulfate reduction and methanogenesis at ~320 cm below sea floor (bsf). This process is reflected in the dissolved sulfate, total carbon dioxide, and methane concentrations, as well a

The boron isotope composition of calcium carbonate shells of marine organisms has the unique potential to record surface ocean pH, allowing the calculation of atmospheric pCO2 due to the established relationship between pH and the partial pressure of (atmospheric) CO2 (pCO2). This “paleo-pH meter” allows scientists to produce a record of the natural fluctuations of atmospheric pCO2 over geologic time, which will help us better understand the impacts of the recent anthropogenic addition of CO2 to Earth's atmosphere. Towards this end, a tremendous effort to understand the systematics of boron up

The environmental isotopes composition of water (δ18O, δ2Hand 3H) and hydrochemistry concentration were measured seasonally at eight stations along Euphrates River within the study area for two periods (January–Augustm, 2014) to study temporal special variations of these isotopes. The results of isotopes values showed there is a little difference between the periods due to the seasonal change and the trend of distribution can be attributed to evaporation and drainage flow. Generally the river water has positive d-excess, which indicates the vapor source of the Mediterranean moisture sources in

Abstract:
The rapid increase in applications of scandium isotopes in nuclear medicine requires new efficient production routes for these radioisotopes. Recently, irradiations of calcium in cyclotrons by α, deuteron, and proton beams have been used. Therefore, effective post-irradiation separation and preconcentration of the radioactive scandium from the calcium matrix are important to obtain the pure final product in a relatively small volume. Nobias resin was used as a sorbent for effective separation of 44Sc from calcium targets. Separation was performed at pH 3 using a column containing 10 mg of resi
