The Nu Instruments nu carb automated carbonate device, interfaced to the Nu Instruments PERSPECTIVE isotope ratio mass spectrometer will precisely determine δ13C and δ18O isotope ratios of small amounts (15-150μg) of calcium carbonate.
The nu carb is a bench-top carbonate device contained within a custom built oven maintained at a user defined temperature typically 70°C. Carbonate samples contained in 50 open top individual vials are reacted sequentially with a controlled amount of added phosphoric acid.
