Abstract

The continuous-flow method for the determination of the O-isotope composition of solid samples has significant advantages over off-line extraction methods, but the problem has arisen of the standardization of results that has only partially been resolved by the use of water standards. We propose a new approach to standardization that uses carbothermic reduction of calcium carbonate standards catalyzed by high-purity AgCl. Analytical accuracy, precision, variance homogeneity and long-term stability are proven. Preliminary data on the barium sulfate δ18O analyses are reported, with a closer look at the different results obtained by off-line and on-line methods on intercomparison standards NBS-127 and MSS3.
