A new technique to study nutrient flow in host-parasite systems by carbon stable isotope analysis of amino acids and glucose
Abstract Stable isotope analysis of individual compounds is emerging as a powerful tool to study nutrient origin and conversion in host-parasite systems. We measured the carbon isotope composition of amino acids and glucose in the cestode Schistocephalus solidus and in liver and muscle tissues of it...
