Abstract
A thin layer chromatography plate is disclosed for two-dimensional chromatography of a sample, in which the plate has a first surface portion including a first composition suitable to perform thin layer partition chromatography in a first direction on the plate and a second surface portion including a second composition suitable to perform thin layer chromatography in a second direction on the plate, wherein the second composition is selected from the group consisting of (1) a composition, different from the first composition, suitable to perform thin layer partition chromatography and (2) a composition suitable to perform adsorptive thin layer partition chromatography. A method of using such a plate is also disclosed.
Claims2
A thin layer chromatography plate for two-dimensional chromatography of a sample, said plate comprising a first surface portion consisting essentially of silica gel having octadecyl groups attached thereto, said first composition being suitable to perform reverse phase thin layer partition chromatography in a first direction on said plate, and a second surface portion including a second composition, different from said first composition, comprising silica gel, said second composition being suitable to perform adsorptive chromatography in a second direction on said plate.
