Toward a standardised protocol for the stable isotope analysis of scleractinian corals.

CONCLUSIONS: For going toward a standardised protocol in coral research, we recommend using an available drying method (as they are equally acceptable) for the stable isotope analysis of scleractinian corals, examining the need for lipid extraction on a case-by-case basis, performing a direct acidification of Symbiodiniaceae and animal tissues, and avoiding washing animal tissue with distilled water.
