sed searching ASCII patterns

i have this file in ASCII it has stuff like "mass unit <80>u" and "nucleus ^G±^G²^H" or "^TN^Tu^Tc^Tl^Te^To^Tn^Ts "
                   mostly when i look at it in print this appears around bold
                   face, italics and some math equations. I am trying to at
                   least filter out all the bold and italic stuff so i can
                   easly copy and paste the plain text and produce a latex
                   file, i know that sed has a pattern matching for ASCII
                   characters by deciaml hex and octal value. how do i know
                   what these represent?
