A review by Dawson discusses the basic materials used in the creation <strong>of</strong> art as<br />

well as how these components degrade.[371] This article provides an excellent<br />

foundation for understanding conservation and res<strong>to</strong>ration. For a comprehensive<br />

review <strong>of</strong> the most recent advances in the identification and determination <strong>of</strong><br />

organic compounds present in art and art conservation materials, consult<br />

Doménech-Carbó’s article.[365]<br />

Laser technology, specifically, appears <strong>to</strong> be well established for conservation <strong>of</strong><br />

cultural heritage. In his book, Lasers in preservation <strong>of</strong> cultural heritage, Fotakis<br />

et al. describe the principles and applications <strong>of</strong> lasers in cultural heritage.[372]<br />

Further, several journal articles provide similar information.[373-376]<br />

Ultraviolet fluorescence spectroscopy was reported on by Thoury et al., where<br />

varnishes were studied in situ on prepared samples as well as works <strong>of</strong> art.[377]<br />

The process <strong>of</strong> teaching scientists and non-science conserva<strong>to</strong>rs how <strong>to</strong> conduct<br />

non-destructive, low-cost analyses was described by Brasuel and coauthors.<br />

Using three different experimental models, the authors describe how students<br />

use reflectance and UV-vis spectroscopies <strong>to</strong> detect forgeries in artwork and<br />

estimate year <strong>of</strong> origin. They are also introduced <strong>to</strong> multivariate calibration, and<br />

assessment <strong>of</strong> the organic components <strong>of</strong> mixtures versus pure materials via Py-<br />

GC/MS data acquisition.[378]<br />
