Optimizing sample pretreatment for compound-specific stable carbon isotopic analysis of amino sugars in marine sediment
Amino sugars are quantitatively significant constituents of soil and marine sediment, but their sources and turnover in environmental samples remain poorly understood. The stable carbon isotopic composition of amino sugars can provide information on the lifestyles of their source organisms and can b...
