The utility of wet chemical reaction sequences, suitable for automation and telemetered control, as a means of detecting biopolymers is explored and its potential assessed with respect to extraterrestrial life detection. A variety of depolymerisation reagents and derivatisation are examined. Additionally, the importance of detecting carbon-either inorganic or organic — is discussed and the relevance of this approach to the detection and indentificaton or inorganic carbon via reactor head space analysis is discussed.
