The Investigation of Dye Sources in English Turkeywork Carpets by Ultra High Performance Liquid Chromatography (UHPLC–PDA) Analysis
We present a comprehensive investigation of two rare examples of turkeywork carpets held in Scottish collections: the Kinghorne Carpet at National Museums Scotland and the Chaloner Carpet in the Burrell Collection. Analysis by ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC–PDA) showed that the colours used in the making of the carpets were achieved...Troalen, Lore ; Upton, Rosie ; Mulherron, Jamie ; Hulme, Alison N

A multi-analytical approach towards the investigation of Subarctic Athapaskan colouring of quillwork and its sensitivity to photo-degradation
Non-European dyed materials other than textiles have received comparatively little systematic analysis, this is particularly true for objects made with dyed porcupine quills. This paper presents a comprehensive study of a group of Athapaskan porcupine quill specimens collected in 1862 which are held within the collections of National Museums Scotland,...Troalen, Lore ; Röhrs, S ; Calligaro, T ; Pacheco, C ; Kunz, S …

Historical textile dyeing with Genista tinctoria L.: a comprehensive study by UPLC-MS/MS analysis
Polyphenolic components from Genista species have been well characterised because of their potential as antioxidants and as therapeutic leads; however, the identification of dyer's greenweed (Genista tinctoria L.) in historical textiles has been the subject of only limited studies. This paper presents a comprehensive UPLC-PDA MS/MS study of reference and...Troalen, Lore ; Phillips, Ashely S ; Peggie, David A ; Barran, Perdita E ; Hulme, Alison N
