- Notes: LM IIIC Early; excavated in 1905/1906; subsamples were concentrated to solid by rotary evaporator and redissolved in uninhibited tetrahydrofuran (THF) to produce ~300 μl GC-MS analytes, which supplied 5 μl for auto injection; Solvent blanks were utilized before and after each sample;pulsed split injector and interface were both set to 250°C; initial oven temperature set to 100°C and held for two minutes before reaching 250°C at a rate of 10°C/minute, at which time it was held for an additional 11 minutes, giving the total program time of 28 minutes/sample
