Abstract | Long-chain diols (LCDs) are ubiquitous lipids produced by freshwater and marine algae. A combination of semi-preparative high performance liquid chromatography and gas chromatography isotope ratio monitoring mass spectrometry, allowed the measurement of δ2H of individual LCDs from cultures, which indicated a correlation with the hydrogen isotope composition of the growth water and a species-specific effect. Results from environmental samples along a salinity gradient indicated the potential of δ2H ratios of LCDs to trace the hydrogen isotopic composition of water and sea surface salinity. |
