5.1 Using rare isotopes as tracers

When the detection of an element is limited by the pollution of the analysis atmosphere (oxygen, hydrogen, carbon), the use of low-abundance natural isotopes ( 18 O, 2 H, 13 C) as tracers can improve the detection limit, provided these isotopes have been deliberately introduced into the sample.

The example in figure 16
