Abstract:The
covalently bound biomarkers in the macrostructure of kerogen
or asphaltene can provide unique information compared with the routinely
extractable biomarkers. Here, a shale sample (immature Posidonia Shale)
and an oil sample (Norwegian Geochemical Standard NSO-1) were systematically
investigated by heating them to different temperatures and by mixing
them with different catalytic materials to optimize the microscale
sealed vessel catalytic hydrogenation (MSSV-Hy) protocol. It can be
demonstrated that (1) te… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
