Stable Isotope Analysis of Oak Microcuttings and Collembola

For 13C and 15N analysis of the compartments of oak microcuttings, the plant material was dried, milled, weighed into tin capsules (1.50–1.75 mg) and stored in a desiccator until analysis (plant material contained pools (leaves and lateral roots) or individual plants (stems and principal roots); for pools see electronic supplementary material, table S2). For 13C and 15N analysis of Collembola, 15–20 individuals of P. armata, equivalent to 50–200 µg dry weight, were transferred into tin capsules, dried at 60°C for 24 h and stored in a desiccator until analysis.
Samples were analysed with a combined system consisting of an elemental analyser (NA 1500, Carlo Erba, Milan, Italy) and a mass spectrometer (MAT 251, Finnigan, Bremen, Germany) [39 ]. The precision of the measurement is 0.1 delta per mil for 13C and 0.2 delta per mil for 15N. Stable isotope abundance is expressed as atom% excess calculated as 13C (%) = [13C/(12C + 13C)]/100 and 15N (%) = [15N/(14N + 15N)]/100. For 13C PD belemnite (PDB) and for 15N atmospheric N was used as primary standard. Acetanilide (C8H9NO; Merck, Darmstadt, Germany) was used for internal calibration.

Stable Isotope Analysis of Terrestrial Organisms

Larvae and adults of gnats and midges, plant- and leafhoppers, spiders and rice plants were dried at 60 °C for 48 h. Large spiders such as tetragnathids (Tetragnathidae) were ground entirely and a subsample used for the analysis; while small species were used whole. Samples were transferred into tin capsules which were closed before analysis. SIA was carried out by a combination of an elemental analyser (NA 1110, CA-Instruments, Milano, Italy) coupled with an isotope mass spectrometer (Delta Plus, Finnigan MAT, Bremen, Germany; Reineking et al. 1993 (link)). Natural variations in stable isotope ratios were expressed using the δ notation as δX (‰) = (RsampleRstandard)/Rstandard × 1000, with X representing 13C or 15N, Rsample the 13C/12C or 15N/14N ratio of the sample and Rstandard the respective ratios of the standard. Vienna Peedee Belemnite limestone and atmospheric nitrogen were used as standards for 13C and 15N, respectively. Acetanilide (C8H9NO, Merck, Darmstadt) was used for internal calibration.

Stable Isotope Analysis of Soil Biota

Specimens were transferred into tin capsules. Rare (e.g. Carabodes willmanni) or smallersized species (e.g. Microppia minus) required the pooling of several individuals to reach the biomass necessary to the analysis. After drying at 60°C for at least 12 h, samples were reweighed and stored in a desiccator until further analysis. The same procedure was used to prepare samples of nematodes, extracted from fresh soil by using a modified Baermann funnel method. Soil, mosses, lichens, roots, and plant material were ground and subjected to the same procedure (root and plant material 1.0 -1.5 mg, soil 34.1 -35.3 mg). We analysed these organisms and material to obtain baseline values of different potential food sources for oribatid mites (Supplementary Material). A coupled system of an elemental analyzer (Euro EA 3000, Euro Vector S.p.A.: Milano, Italy) and a mass spectrometer (Delta V Plus Thermo Electron; Bremen, Germany) was used to analyze the 13 C/ 12 C and nitrogen whereas acetanilide (C8H9NO, Merck, Darmstadt, Germany) served for internal calibration. Vienna Pee Dee Belemnite (V-PDB) was used as a primary standard for 13 C.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
