Summary:

This outstanding state-of-the-art reference examines the prerequisites, the fundamental theoretical aspects, and a wide variety of practical applications of quantitative thin-layer chromatography (TLC). Quantitative Thin-Layer Chromatography and Its Industrial Applications details the mathematical treatment of photometry in light-scattering media, highlights the characteristics of sorbents for TLC, discusses computer-assisted TLC, and delineates the utility of flame ionization detectors. The book also presents specific applications, including the analysis of long-chain phenols, steroids, vitamins, alkaloids, fermentation products (e.g., antibiotics), bioactive materials in plant extracts, and polymers. Emphasizing methods that have been extensively tested in industrial labs, this useful guide includes the most complete explanation of the theory of quantitation yet published ... and demonstrates the complementary nature of TLC and high-speed liquid chromatography. Quantitative Thin-Layer Chromatography and Its Industrial Applications is by far the most current and authoritative account of its topic available. It will prove an essential handbook for clinical, analytical, and polymer chemists, biochemists, materials scientists, chromatographers, chemical engineers, pharmacologists, and food technologists working in industrial analytical and materials testing laboratories.
