Diverse samples submitted by CCI's clients and identified by FTIR include waxy crystals from a mummy's head, buttons made from vegetable ivory (a type of nut), and a sticky coating on a Ukrainian-Canadian Easter egg. The paint and surface coatings on a 1965 Rolls Royce decorated with a brightly coloured floral motif, which had once been owned by John Lennon, were analyzed to aid in treatment selection. Ethnographic paints, amber, archeological specimens, samples from Chinese wall paintings, and blooms on paintings have also been analyzed.
