Merck, 1057870001, HPTLC plates, Cellulose

General description
25 Glass plates 10 x 10 cm
Cellulose plates are used to analyze polar substances. An organic sorbent, cellulose is perfect for separating hydrophilic substances by partition chromatography. Typical applications include the analysis of amino acids, carbohydrates, and phosphates as well as nucleic acid and nucleic acid derivatives. We offer cellulose plates in two grades: TLC for conventional and HPTLC for demanding, high-performance separations.
Application

Fast assessment of planar chromatographic layers quality using pulse thermovision method: Focuses on the quality control of cellulose HPTLC plates, ensuring the reliability of chromatographic processes in various research and industrial applications (Suszyński et al., 2014).

High-performance thin-layer chromatographic-densitometric determination of secoisolariciresinol diglucoside in flaxseed: Utilizes cellulose HPTLC plates for precise quantification of bioactive compounds in natural products, serving the needs of the nutraceutical and pharmaceutical industries (Coran et al., 2004).
