Effects of ethanol storage and lipid and urea extraction on δ15 N and δ13 C isotope ratios in a benthic elasmobranch, the bluespotted maskray Neotrygon kuhlii.

K B Burgess1, M B Bennett1.   

Abstract

Ethanol storage and lipid and urea extraction had no effect on bluespotted maskray Neotrygon kuhlii muscle δ13 C values whereas urea-removal and ethanol storage increased δ15 N values. Results presented here show a significant δ15 N increase post-urea removal and provide additional support for this approach in future elasmobranch stable-isotope analysis (SIA) studies. Further experimental work on other elasmobranch species is needed to assess extraction and preservation effects on stable-isotope (SI) values.
