Abstract
Because of the heterogeneous nature of wood it is important that the material selected for analysis is of known origin. An incomplete characterization of the wood sample before analysis can lead to unreliable results because of contamination with tissues not typical of the expected normal wood. Guidelines for the selection of wood material are given in the first part of this chapter. The discussion is limited to stem wood.
