Abstract

An organic material sample is prepared for LIBS analysis based on searing a sample of granular organic material having an organic matrix. The searing includes supplying heat to the sample for one or more known exposure times to produce a same number of searing instances, measuring reflectance values of the sample before and after one or more of the searing instances, determining a searing parameter as an indicator of a susceptibility of the organic matrix to searing determined based on the measured reflectance values, calculating a time value from an application of a predictive model derived from an empirical analysis of reference data comprising time values indexed against searing parameter to the searing parameter, the predictive model linking the searing parameter to the time value, generating a new exposure time using the time value, and heating the sample for the new exposure time to produce a new searing instance.
