Guidelines and recommended terms for expression of stable-isotope-ratio and gas-ratio measurement results
Open accessAbstract
To minimize confusion in the expression of measurement results of stable isotope and gas-ratio measurements, recommendations based on publications of the Commission on Isotopic Abundances and Atomic Weights of the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) are presented. Whenever feasible, entries are consistent with the Système International d'Unités, the SI (known in English as the International System of Units), and the third edition of the International Vocabulary of Basic and General Terms in Metrology (VIM, 3rd edition). The recommendations presented herein are approved by the Commission on Isotopic Abundances and Atomic Weights and are designed to clarify expression of quantities related to measurement of isotope and gas ratios to ensure that quantity equations instead of numerical value equations are used for quantity definitions. Examples of column headings consistent with quantity calculus (also called the algebra of quantities) and examples of various deprecated usages connected with the terms recommended are presented.

“If kinetic isotope effect is used to describe a cascade of reaction steps instead of an elementary chemical reaction (e.g., in enzyme reactions or environmental processes), the value will be affected by all processes leading up to and including the first irreversible step.[22]”

“How mass-independent effects are defined and expressed for elements is a matter of active discussion and investigation.[33]”
§ Guidelines and recommended terms for expression of stableisotope-ratio and gas-ratio measurement results †, { > Note 1: The majority of the isotopic variations observed in stable isotope amounts of elements with more than two stable isotopes in terrestrial materials are approximately linearly correlated with differences in isotope masses.For example, classical isotope effects generally will produce d 17/16 O values that are about one half those of d 18/16 O values, d 34/32 S values that are about twice those of d 33/32 S values, and d 36/32 S values that are approximately four times those of d 33/32 S values.Such isotopic variations are termed mass-dependent isotopic fractionation because the physical and chemical processes that produce these isotope effects have a strong and direct dependence on isotope mass.Some isotope effects are produced by physical and chemical processes that have strong dependences on parameters other than isotope mass and are termed mass-independent isotope effects.Mass-independent isotopic fractionation has been observed for the elements oxygen, [32,33] sulfur, and mercury.All elements of even atomic number greater than that of oxygen have three or more stable isotopes and have the potential to exhibit non-mass-dependent isotopic fractionation.Mass-independent isotopic fractionation (MIF) has also been referred to as non-mass-dependent fractionation and anomalous fractionation of isotopes of an element.Massindependent isotope effects can yield large values of Δ.For this reason, Δ has been used to describe situations where mass-independent isotopic fractionation has occurred.How mass-independent effects are defined and expressed for elements is a matter of active discussion and investigation.[33]

“For example, classical isotope effects generally will produce d 17/16 O values that are about one half those of d 18/16 O values, d 34/32 S values that are about twice those of d 33/32 S values, and d 36/32 S values that are approximately four times those of d 33/32 S values.”
§ Guidelines and recommended terms for expression of stableisotope-ratio and gas-ratio measurement results †, { > Note 1: The majority of the isotopic variations observed in stable isotope amounts of elements with more than two stable isotopes in terrestrial materials are approximately linearly correlated with differences in isotope masses.For example, classical isotope effects generally will produce d 17/16 O values that are about one half those of d 18/16 O values, d 34/32 S values that are about twice those of d 33/32 S values, and d 36/32 S values that are approximately four times those of d 33/32 S values.Such isotopic variations are termed mass-dependent isotopic fractionation because the physical and chemical processes that produce these isotope effects have a strong and direct dependence on isotope mass.Some isotope effects are produced by physical and chemical processes that have strong dependences on parameters other than isotope mass and are termed mass-independent isotope effects.Mass-independent isotopic fractionation has been observed for the elements oxygen, [32,33] sulfur, and mercury.All elements of even atomic number greater than that of oxygen have three or more stable isotopes and have the potential to exhibit non-mass-dependent isotopic fractionation.Mass-independent isotopic fractionation (MIF) has also been referred to as non-mass-dependent fractionation and anomalous fractionation of isotopes of an element.Massindependent isotope effects can yield large values of Δ.For this reason, Δ has been used to describe situations where mass-independent isotopic fractionation has occurred.How mass-independent effects are defined and expressed for elements is a matter of active discussion and investigation.[33]

There is confusion about the notation of delta values in isotope studies.
“During the 2003 meeting in Ottawa, Canada, of the Commission on Isotopic Abundances and Atomic Weights of the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry, members recognized that there is confusion about the notation of delta values in isotope studies.”

An isotope effect is related to, and may be predicted from, molecular structures of reactants, transition states, and products of an elementary chemical reaction, and it is position- and reaction-specific.
“An isotope effect is related to, and may be predicted from, molecular structures of reactants, transition states, and products of an elementary chemical reaction.It is position-and reaction-specific (i.e., for the same reaction, each molecular position has a different isotope effect, and the same position shows different isotope effects in different reactions).”
The paper relies on this without support.
All elements of even atomic number greater than that of oxygen have three or more stable isotopes and have the potential to exhibit non-mass-dependent isotopic fractionation.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-10, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-10 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
