I thought I just read that Oxford University was doing new tests and the results were do any time? Was this on the original material, or did they obtain new samples?

Re: new tests

They are not testing shroud material. They are testing other old linen that has been exposed to fire to see if atmospheric carbon from adjacent newer material can be exchanged for the carbon in the linen.
