Claim 2:
3. The method of claim 2, wherein one or more of:
(i) conditioning the hydrocarbon feedstock sample comprises one or more of:
controlling a sample temperature of the hydrocarbon feedstock sample to maintain a hydrocarbon feedstock sample temperature within a first preselected temperature range,
removing particulates from the hydrocarbon feedstock sample,
diluting the hydrocarbon feedstock sample in solvent, or
degassing the hydrocarbon feedstock sample,

(ii) conditioning the CFH unit material sample comprises one or more of:
controlling a sample temperature of the CFH unit material sample to maintain a CFH unit material sample temperature within a second preselected temperature range,
removing particulates from the CFH unit material sample,
diluting the CFH unit material sample in solvent, or
degassing the CFH unit material sample, or

(iii) conditioning the unit material sample comprises one or more of:
controlling a unit material sample temperature of the unit material sample to maintain a unit material sample temperature within a third preselected temperature range,
removing particulates from the unit material sample,
diluting the unit material sample in solvent, or
degassing the unit material sample.
