Planar chromatography with electroosmotic flow is used to separate either a mixture of dyes using 80% aqueous ethanol as the mobile phase or a mixture of miscellaneous compounds using 45% aqueous acetonitrile as the mobile phase. Both mobile phases are 1.0 mM in N-[tris(hydroxymethyl)methyl]-3-aminopropanesulfonic acid (TAPS) buffer. Separations using this technique are faster and more efficient than the same separations by conventional TLC. The respective relationships between migration velocity and applied potential, and between analysis time and distance migrated, are presented.
A method is described for the determination of antiarrhythmia drugs in serum by high-performance thin-layer chromatography. Baseline separations are achieved for all the drugs and clozapine, an internal standard, in two developments with solvents of different polarity. Lidocaine and diphenylhydantoin are scanned at 220 nm after the first development. Procainamide, propranolol and quinidine are scanned at 290 nm after the second development. The relative standard deviation of the determination varies between 3 and 14% depending on the nature of the drug and its concentration.
A method is described for the determination of sucrose in molasses by high-performance thin-layer chromatography. A baseline separation of sucrose is achieved in about 40 min using acetone--water (90:10) as developing solvent. The relative standard deviation of determinations by this method is about 2.2%. Results agree with those obtained by isotope dilution analysis of the same molasses samples.
