Scope and Contents

Contents

Omnivorous animals feed on several food items that often differ in macronutrient and isotopic composition. Macronutrients can be used for either metabolism or body tissue synthesis and, therefore, stable C isotope ratios of exhaled breath (δ¹³Cbreath) and tissue may differ. To study nutrient routing in omnivorous animals, we measured δ¹³Cbreath in...
