• Carbon, nitrogen, and sulfur diet–tissue discrimination in mouse tissues (2005, background): “We have previously shown in laboratory conditions that mouse blood, muscle, and liver derive approximately 75% of carbon incorporated into newly synthesized tissue from dietary protein (MacAvoy et al. 2005).”
• On the Use of Stable Isotopes in Trophic Ecology (2011, methodology): “Attempts to partition isotopic turnover into the percentage contributions of growth and metabolism from these models (e.g., MacAvoy et al. 2005, Reich et al. 2008, Buchheister & Latour 2010) are likewise suspect.”
• Changes in d13C and d15N in different tissues of juvenile sand goby Pomatoschistus minutus: a laboratory diet-switch experiment (2007, background): “…in isotopic composition following dietary change Isotopic turnover rates vary widely among different tissues and organs in endothermic vertebrates (e.g. Tieszen et al. 1983, Hobson & Clark 1992, 1993, MacAvoy et al. 2005), but this has not yet been unambiguously established for poikilothermic fish.”
• Isotopic ecology ten years after a call for more laboratory experiments (2009, background): “Although the mice studied by MacAvoy et al. (2005) were growing, they were close to their maximal size, whereas many of the studies on ectotherms have been conducted in rapidly growing young.”
• Ten years of experimental animal isotopic ecology (2009, unknown): “MacAvoy et al.’s (2006) study exacerbated this conflation when they reported a negative correlation between mass-specific basal metabolic rate (MR/mb) and the half-life of isotopic incorporation.”
