abstract = {A new method for stable carbon isotope ratio analysis of
anhydrosugars from biomass burning aerosol particle source
filter samples was developed by employing Thermal
Desorption--2 Dimensional Gas Chromatography--Isotope Ratio
Mass Spectrometry (TD-2DGC-IRMS). Compound specific isotopic
measurements of levoglucosan, mannosan, and galactosan
performed by TD-2DGC-IRMS in a standard mixture show good
agreement with isotopic measurements of the bulk
anhydrosugars, carried out by Elemental Analyzer--Isotope
Ratio Mass Spectrometry (EA-IRMS). The established method
was applied to determine the isotope ratios of levoglucosan,
mannosan, and galactosan from source samples collected
during combustion of hard wood, softwood, and crop residues.
δ(13)C values of levoglucosan were found to vary between
-25.6 and -22.2‰, being higher in the case of softwood.
Mannosan and galactosan were detected only in the softwood
samples showing isotope ratios of -23.5‰ (mannosan) and
-25.7‰ (galactosan). The isotopic composition of
holocellulose in the plant material used for combustion
experiments was determined with δ(13)C values between -28.5
and -23.7‰. The difference in δ(13)C of levoglucosan in
biomass burning aerosol particles compared to the parent
fuel holocellulose was found to be -1.89 (±0.37)‰ for the
investigated biomass fuels. Compound specific δ(13)C
measurements of anhydrosugars should contribute to an
improved source apportionment.},
