The utility of combining stable isotope and hormone analyses for marine megafauna research
Stable isotope and hormone analyses offer insight into the health, stress, nutrition,
movements, and reproduction of individuals and populations. Such information can provide …

Improving stable isotope assessments of inter‐and intra‐species variation in coral reef fish trophic strategies
Fish have one of the highest occurrences of individual specialization in trophic strategies
among Eukaryotes. Yet, few studies characterize this variation during trophic niche analysis …

The effects of lipid extraction on δ13C and δ15N values and use of lipid‐correction models across tissues, taxa and trophic groups
Lipid‐rich animal tissues have low δ13C values, which can lead to inaccurate ecological
inferences. Chemical lipid extraction (LE) or correction models account for this depletion, but …

Effects of lipid extraction on stable isotope ratios of carbon and nitrogen in muscles of freshwater fish
ES Ivanova, MA Belova, OY Rumiantseva… - … in Environmental and …, 2024 - Taylor & Francis
The extraction of lipids by the Folch method from the muscles of all the fish studied led to
statistically significant differences in the values of δ 15N. At the same time, lipid extraction …
