HPTLC Hyphenation For Speed & Precision

There are times when more analytical information is required than HPTLC alone can provide. Swiss Planar Chromatography instrument manufacturer, CAMAG, is at the forefront of HPTLC hyphenation. UK distributor, Omicron Research Limited, brings you CAMAG’s CBS106 magazine, comprising international studies demonstrating this capability.

Hyphenation of HPTLC can take many forms, combining HPTLC with diode array detectors, evaporative light scattering detectors, polarimetric detectors or circular dichroism detectors. Use of CAMAG’s Bioluminizer interface combines the separation power of planar chromatography with bioluminescence detection, enabling the identification of single biologically active compounds, as revealed in an article on antibiotics in milk.

CAMAG’s TLC-MS proves its worth when fingerprinting herbal essential oils. This interface allows rapid elution of TLC/HPTLC zones with online transfer to any HPLC/MS system without modification. Within seconds a substance’s mass spectrum can be determined in this way.

This edition of CAMAG’s Bibliography Service include papers on Traditional Chinese Medicine, peptides from tryptic protein digest and sucralose in water. Contact Omicron for your free copy of CBS 106 on [email protected]
