Stable carbon isotopes have been used in various applications for approximately 50 years, in many applications including the fields of medicine, criminology, and biology and recently has been used in the remediation field to track the degradation of various organic compounds. It is a commercially available investigation technology that is gaining in popularity and has unique applications related to monitored natural attenuation (MNA). To further discuss this technology and how it is used at MNA sites, we presented the following question to five guest panel members. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
