DNA preserved in jetsam whale ambergris [PDF]
Abstract Jetsam ambergris, found on beaches worldwide, has always been assumed to originate as a natural product of sperm whales (Physeteroidea). However, only indirect evidence has ever been produced for this, such as the presence of whale prey remains in ambergris.

Chromatographic and spectral studies of jetsam and archived ambergris [PDF]
We describe determination of the dichloromethane-soluble components of 12 samples of the natural product, ambergris, using capillary gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS). Ambergris is produced in vivo in about 1% of Sperm whales and is used in perfumery and for odour fixation.
