Abstract:
The carbon isotope fractionation between tooth enamel bioapatite, breath CO2, and diet was measured for voles, rabbits, pigs, and cattle on controlled diets. The measured fractionation (expressed as isotope enrichment o/oo, 12.8 ± 0.7o/oo, 13.3 ± 0.3o/oo, and 14.6 ± 0.3o/oo for these respective species. There is a 1:1 correlation between breath--diet and enamel--diet (r2 = 0.94, p < 0.01), whereas the authors' data do not resolve significant inter-species differences in enamel-breath. The authors argue that these findings are consistent with the hypothesis that inter-species differences in bioapatite-diet are primarily a result of differences in digestive physiology, rather than differences in the magnitude of fractionation between mineral and body fluid.
