Abstract
The identification of dyestuff in ancient textiles often provides a major analytical challenge. High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) coupled with diode-array detection (DAD) and/or mass spectrometry (MS) is the most used technique for the identification of dye molecules. However, this technique has severe limitations in the study of ancient dyed fibers due to the large amount of sample required [1]. Moreover, chemical extraction processes necessary for HPLC analysis can be detrimental to these severely size-limited and irreplaceable archaeological materials.
