<p>Food products of certain geographic origin are more valued by consumers than the same commodities from other regions. Therefore, there is the risk and fear that incorrect labelling and declaration of geographic origin can occur to increase profit. Thus, a control of declared geographic origin is required to ensure correct labelling and to identify fraud.</p><p>For this purpose, apricot samples of the recent vintage (2019) are investigated to differentiate samples from different apricot-producing regions in Austria, Slovakia and other countries. The isotope composition of the elements hydrogen (H), carbon (C), nitrogen (N) and oxygen (O) of fruit pulp (H, C, N, O), fruit stone (H, C, O) and fruit juice (O) is analysed to find appropriate parameters for the differentiation of geographic origin. The investigation of different sample tissues (pulp, stone, juice) supports a better differentiation of geographic origin due to different seasonal intervals influencing the respective commodities.</p><p>Within the frame of the project 3 vintages will be investigated and analysed for stable isotopes as well as other analytical techniques (molecular markers). The combination of all sample data (including previously accumulated data, e.g. Horacek 2017, Horacek 2019) will lead to an improved differentiation and identification of geographic origin.</p><p>This work is a contribution to the Interreg project IDARPO partially funded by the EU-Interreg program.</p><p>References:</p><p>Horacek, M., 2017, Isotope investigation of apricots from the Wachau-area/Lower Austria („Wachauer Marille“) to control the declared geographic origin: A pilot study – first results.

Abstract Stable isotope analysis of biogenic tissues like tooth and bone has become a widely recognized and increasingly important method for provenance of human remains, particularly in bio-archaeological and forensic investigations. Establishing the dietary status and identity of unknown human skeletal remains retrieved from forensic anthropological contexts is a challenging task. Thousands of unknown human osseous remains along with the personalized contextual items, reportedly belonging to 282 Indian soldiers killed in 1857, were excavated non-scientifically from an abandoned well at Ajnala (Amritsar, India). In present study, the isotopic concentrations of carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) were estimated from the dentine collagen extracted from 21 first molars to provide information about the geographic affinity and dietary status of the individuals killed in Ajnala. As diagenesis affects bone more severely than enamel or dentine due to increased porosity of the former, so teeth were preferred to bones for stable isotope analysis in present study. The literature supported C: N range of 2.8-3.6 was considered as cut-off for the well-preserved collagen and the samples with values outside this range were considered to be altered or contaminated with non-collagenous materials. The interpretation of the obtained isotope values from Ajnala teeth samples indicated the consumption of C3/C4 mixed diet (though some samples showing marine diet) by the victims which supported the previous observations about the dietary status of Ajnala victims estimated from prevalence of various dental pathologies. Though C and N isotopes are generally not the best indicators of geographic origin, they can be used to for the purpose only if they show different dietary inputs of C3 and C4 plants. Present study results provided scientific confirmation to the written historical accounts that Ajnala skeletal remains belonged to the individuals belonging to the Indian states of Awadh (north-eastern Uttar Pradesh), Bihar and Bengal and some norteastern states.
