摘要	Long-chain alkenones (LCAs) and alkenoates (LCEs) are highly valuable biomarkers for paleotemperature reconstructions. A major problem, however, for accurate quantification of these compounds using gas chromatography (GC) is co-elution with steryl ethers, wax esters, saturated ketones and other numerous mid-polarity compounds frequently encountered in marginal marine and lake sediments. Co-elution during GC separation is prevalent, particularly if the full homologous series of alkenones and alkenoates are to be analyzed. Taking advantage of the presence of two or more double bonds in LCAs and LCEs, the conventional silica gel impregnated with silver nitrate has previously been used to remove co-eluting compounds for LCAs. However, this conventional argentation chromatography is hampered by the extreme instability of silver nitrate, poor reproducibility, low recovery and short lifetime. Here we demonstrate a highly efficient flash chromatographic approach based on silver thiolate chromatographic material (AgTCM) that overcomes the shortcomings of the traditional argentation chromatography and allows repeated sample preparation (up to 62 samples in one test) with little loss in separation efficiency. AgTCM selectively extracts LCAs and LCEs and effectively eliminates co-eluting compounds including steryl ethers and wax esters for the subsequent gas chromatography (GC) analysis. This new method, therefore, allows low-cost and high-throughput sample preparation for comprehensive quantification of the full homologous series of LCAs and LCEs in marine and lake sediments.
