Abstract
Stable isotope analysis has undergone a long gestation in university and other well-respected commercial laboratories. It is based on precise measurements using sophisticated instrumentation. Its reliability and validity for use in many fields and applications are well documented. Like DNA identification analysis, the scientific foundation for stable isotope evidence provides a strong starting point for its use in the courtroom.
