SUMMARY
Biomarkers are compounds found in crude oil with structures inherited from once-living organisms. They persist in oil spills, refinery products and archaeological artifacts, and can be used to identify the origin, geological age and environmental conditions prevelant during their formation and alteration. The first of two volumes of The Biomarker Guide discusses the origins of biomarkers and introduces basic chemical principles relevant to their study. It goes on to discuss analytical technique, and the applications of biomarkers in environmental and archaeological problems.Peters, Kenneth E. is the author of 'Biomarker Guide Interpreting Molecular Fossils in Petroleum and Ancient Sediments', published 2004 under ISBN 9780521786973 and ISBN 0521786975.
