Quality control of commercial mustard by thin-layer chromatography
Horseradish samples ( Cochlearis armoracia L. ) and mustard samples ( Sinapis alba L. ) were extracted with 70:30 ( v/v ) methanol-water in accordance with ISO method 91671. Samples of commercial mustard with and without horseradish were submitted to the same extraction procedure. Separation of the active compounds from these samples were performed on silica gel 60 plates with preconcentration zone and on silica gel F 254 high-performance thin-layer chromatography plates, with iso -propanol-25% ammonia, 90 + 10 ( v/v ), containing different volumes of distilled water (1, 2, 3, or 5 parts), as mobile phases. After development the compounds were visualized in UV light at λ = 254 nm or by expo…
Synthesis and characterization of alumina R chemically modified withn-octyl for use as a stationary phase in TLC
A stationary phase for thin-layer chromatography has been prepared by attaching 1-octene to alumina R. This stationary phase has been characterized by elemental analysis, measurement of specific surface area, IR spectroscopy, and by chromatographic testing.
Synthesis and characterization of diatomaceous earth chemically modified with γ-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane
A stationary phase for thin-layer chromatography has been prepared by bonding purified diatomaceous earth (rich in silica) with γ-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane. The phase has been characterized by elemental analysis, measurement of the specific surface area, IR spectroscopy, thermal analysis, and chromatographic testing.
