要旨

To test the hypothesis that cellulose in linen can be carboxylated at high temperatures in the presence of CO₂, water and silver, we heated two aliquots of cellulose extracted from old wood in glass ampoules, adding Ag powder to one to test its potential action as a catalyst for the carboxylation reaction. AMS measurement of the heated aliquots showed no statistically significant difference in C-14 content from the ''uncarboxylated'' cellulose. we conclude that carboxylation is not a systematic source of error in the dating of cellulose-containing materials such as the linen in the Shroud of Turin.
