The interpretation of isotopic data in ecology requires knowledge about two factors turnover rate and the trophic discrimination factor, which have not been well described in freshwater shrimps. We performed a 142-day diet shift experiment on 174 individuals of the omnivorous shrimp Macrobrachium borellii, measured their growth, and temporally serially sampled muscle and hepatopancreas tissue to quantify carbon and nitrogen incorporation rates and isotope discrimination factors. Shrimps were fed with artificial diets (δ13C = -26.1‰, δ
