Color Changes by Other Agents

Finally, wood constituents corresponding to color change are specific, but not always extractable. Several wood species that were exhaustively extracted continued to exhibit a degree of color change similar to the unextracted samples (54). Unexplained is the fact that some extractives in white woods seem to be light-absorbent (54).
