TO Isogeochem members,
I will be doing oxygen isotope analyses on Paleogene foraminifera,
obtained from a drill core. At this point I'm picking through each sample
to get twenty of a specific genera, and I'm curious about whether or not
this is a good amount to work with. If anyone has worked with forams in a mass
spec, please give me an idea of how many I should expect to need for each sample thanks,
John Hurley
