TLC HPTLC PHOTODOCUMENTATION

Image
  TLC/HPTLC Photodocumentation High Performance Thin Layer Chromatography (HPTLC) is a visual chromatographic technique. What do we mean by the visual approach? The chromatograms, i.e., HPTLC plates, are observed after development. The human eye can see visible spots/bands. If the bands are UV active, we need to observe them under UV. Hence, the HPTLC plate can be visually evaluated, which sets it apart from other chromatographic techniques. The results are monitored and documented. How are the results observed/ documented? HPTLC/TLC results are visual and can be observed by the HPTLC Photodocumentation system. For the HPTLC photodoc, CAMAG has modules such as CAMAG TLC visualizer 2. It has a digital CCD camera. The TLC visualizer electronically captures the high-resolution images of chromatograms under white light, UV 254nm, and under fluorescence. It merges three images to give the best image possible, aided by software-controlled visionCATS for documentation. The software has image
