Summary of cerium speciation extracted from CPSC wipe method cloths determined by LCF analysis of first derivate of normalized XAFS Spectra. Samples marked N/A have cerium concentration low enough creating insufficient signal-to-noise ratios during XAFS data collection and were not used in LCF analysis.
