I don’t understand what you’re talking about.
Do you mean that radiocarbon dating of organic material in general is impossible?
Do you mean that radiocarbon dating of the embryonic nucleus of the eye lens of a vertebrate in particular is impossible?
- pvaldes 7y agoBoth are possible if, and only if, some conditions are fullfilled first. I don't see nothing in the article suggesting that, and I spot at least one serious flaw in the design. But I don't know everything, and I could be wrong, obviously.
- kgwgk 7y agoThere are several papers and theses (including this one about the Greenland shark http://www2.bio.ku.dk/bibliotek/phd/Julius%20Nielsen.pdf http://www2.bio.ku.dk/bibliotek/phd/Julius%20Nielsen.pdf) looking at the isotopic profile of the different layers of fish eye lenses, down to the embryonic nucleus. Maybe all those researchers are onto something. Or maybe they are all wrong. I have no dog on this fight anyway.
