  • Notes:

  • a In the sealed vessel extracts, see Figures 25, 26. These extracts also contained extractables whose identities could not be confidently established based on their low concentration, specifically peaks 1, 3–7, 10, 14, 15, and 16.

  • b In the solvent extracts, Soxhlet and reflux, see Figures 28, 29.

  • c These identifications are classified as confirmed.

  • d Unknowns are compounds whose identities could not be established by the methods used in this study.
