Zare Professor Richard Zare in his lab. Whether it's the summer

grass that tickles your feet or the red Brodeaus smacking on

your palate, nearly every part of the world around you carries

along the way. Now, Stanford chemists have developed a new

method to make isotopics analysis easier and less expensive.
