Naturally occurring ruthenium (44 Ru) is composed of seven stable isotopes (of which two may in the future be found radioactive). Additionally, 27 radioactive isotopes have been discovered. Additionally, 27 radioactive isotopes have been discovered.

English: A diagram showing the isotope signatures of natural ruthenium and fission product ruthenium from U-235 which had been subjected to thermal neutrons. Note that the Mo-100 (a long lived double beta emitter) has not had time to decay to Ru-100 over the time since the reactors stopped working.

Isotope patterns: Isotopic evidence or patterns that require biological processes. Chemistry: Chemical features that require biological activity. Organic matter: Organics formed by biological processes. Minerals: Minerals or biomineral-phases whose composition and/or morphology indicate biological activity (e.g., biomagnetite).
Ruthenium is a chemical element; it has symbol Ru and atomic number 44. It is a rare transition metal belonging to the platinum group of the periodic table . Like the other metals of the platinum group, ruthenium is unreactive to most chemicals.
Isotopic fingerprints are used to study the origin of materials in the Solar System. [38] For example, the Moon's oxygen isotopic ratios seem to be essentially identical to Earth's. [39] Oxygen isotopic ratios, which may be measured very precisely, yield a unique and distinct signature for each Solar System body. [40]
