Isotope analysis of human dental calculus δ(13)CO(3) (2−): Investigating a potential new proxy for sugar consumption

RATIONALE: Dental calculus (mineralised dental plaque) is composed primarily of hydroxyapatite. We hypothesise that the carbonate component of dental calculus will reflect the isotopic composition of ingested simple carbohydrates. Therefore, dental calculus carbonates may be an indicator for sugar c...
