Isotope fractionation approach to characterize the reactive transport processes governing the fate of hexachlorocyclohexanes at a contaminated site in India.

In this study, the potential of carbon isotope fractionation and EF for characterizing uptake of HCHs into plants and accumulation in the food web were examined. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study using the combination of stable isotope fractionation and EF to track the reactive transport processes in a complex environment including the food web.
