Carbon-14 Dating

Domain	Definitions
Biology & Biotechnology	The determination of the age of old carbon materials by means of the measured content of radiocarbon. Source: European Union. (references)
Mining	A method of determining an age in years by measuring the concentration of carbon-14 remaining in an organic material, usually formerly living matter, but also water, bicarbonate, etc. The method is based on the assumption that assimilation of carbon-14 ceased abruptly on the death of an organism and that it thereafter remained a closed system. The method is useful in determining ages in the range of 500 to 30,000 years or 40,000 years, although it may be extended to 70,000 years by using special techniques involving controlled enrichment of the sample in carbon-14.Syn:radiocarbon dating; carbon dating. (references)
Public Administration	Determining the age(up to 45. 000 years)of an organic object by measuring the ratio of the isotope carbon-14 to other carbons in the sample. This rate radioactive isotope occurs in all living plants and animals and is continually renewed; When the living organism dies it stops assimilating C14 and that which is present decays relatively rapidly, thus giving an indication of the age.
