A method for the automated C-13 analysis of dissolved inorganic and organic carbon species has been developed to operate on a continuous-flow isotope ratio mass spectrometer (CF-IRMS). For natural and anthropogenic carbon species, the C-13 stable isotope has proven to be an excellent environmental tracer. Analytical performance tests were carried out on various organic compounds from easily oxidisable (sugar) to difficult (humic acid). A set of natural samples was also analysed to confirm the flexibility of the system. Analytical precision (2sigma) is typically <0.20parts per thousand,, with sample reproducibility from 0.10-0.35parts per thousand depending on reactivity of material. We believe this to be the first successful use of a total organic carbon (TOC) analyser for both dissolved inorganic and, specifically, dissolved organic species for C-13 stable isotope analysis in an automated CF-IRMS system. Routine analysis is achieved fairly quickly, is relatively simple with little or no sample manipulation, and will allow new and exciting studies for stable isotope research in both natural abundance and organic tracer studies not easily achieved before.
