摘要
This paper compares various wood pretreatment methods for highly degraded, and problematic fossil wood extracted from the opencast Szczerc & oacute;w site of the Be & lstrok;chat & oacute;w Lignite Mine in Central Poland. The study evaluates the pretreatment methods using both large samples (55-255 g, referred to as series A) and small samples (36-150 mg, referred to as series B). Additionally, all preparation methods were applied to medium-sized samples (approximately 3 g, referred to as series C) with solvent washes in the Soxhlet apparatus. Radiocarbon dating was conducted using the LSC technique (subseries A(1)) and the AMS technique (subseries A(2), series B, and C). The effectiveness and utility of each pretreatment protocol were compared based on C-14 measurements and FTIR analysis. Through the conducted research and a multi-criteria analysis, the most effective method for preparing old fossil wood was identified. Our experience indicates that an extended, multistage preparation of highly degraded fossil wood samples, with a C-14 concentration near the detection limit of the radiocarbon method, may result in a significant increase in C-14 content.
