| Research Abstract |
Conservation material such as PEG and lactitol used for preservation of waterlogged woods will contaminant radiocarbon dates of the woods. In order to disclosed capability of precise radiocarbon dating of the conserved woods, the wood samples were treated and dated by radiocarbon dating. As the results, carbon contamination which disturb precise dating was slightly observed. The contamination was also detected by Py-GC/MS. This result imply that Py-GC/MS has a possibility to detect the contamination for radiocarbon dating.
