## Abstract Low molecular weight (LMW) biomarkers can be used to trace the source and stage of soil organic matter. However, methods that selectively isolate these groups of compounds are underdeveloped. In this study, we isolate biomarkers by a successive series of extraction and chemical degradat
The macromolecular characterization of fossil or recent organic matter in soils and sediments is frequently carried out using flash pyrolysis-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (PyGC-MS). Such analyses providing information on the organic matter structure and reactivity, can be applied on isolated
