facilities.
The spotting of sample mixture (5-10 /L for conventional TLC ) about 1.52 cm above the lower edge of the layer;
Drying the spot completely at room temperature or at an elevated
temperature;
Developing the plate, usually by one-dimensional ascending technique in a
closed chamber (cylindrical or rectangular) to a distance of 8-10 cm;
Removing the plate from the developing chamber;
Removing mobile phase from the layer by drying;
Detecting spots on the plate using a suitable detection reagent and
procedure;
Measuring the Rf values of resolved spots; and
Determining the separated analyte.
Stationary Phase:
A wide variety of TLC plates are commercially
available, and many of these have found
applications in the analysis of pigments. In this
chapter, individual sorbents are discussed under
specific pigment groups.
a. Silica Layers.
Silica gel G (30 g) is mixed with water (60 mL), and the slurry is transferred
to the TLC plates with a commercial spreader. The plates are allowed to dry for 30
min followed by activation at 120C for 1-2 h.
b. MgO Layers.
MgO (10 g) and kieselguhr G (10 g) are passed through a 60 mesh sieve followed
by mixing with 80 mL of distilled water. The slurry is transferred to the plates with
a commercial spreader. The plates are allowed to dry for 12 h.
c. Cellulose Layers.
Cellulose powder (15 g) is mixed with distilled water (100 mL) and homogenized in
a blender for 30 s. The slurry is transferred to the plates with a commercial
spreader unit. The plates are allowed to dry for 6 h.
d. Sucrose Layers.

A very broad peak in the region between 3100 and 3600 cm-1
indicates the presence of exchangeable protons, typically
from alcohol, amine, amide or carboxylic acid groups

Summary:
HC=O stretch 2830-2695 cm-1
C=O stretch:
aliphatic aldehydes 1740-1720 cm-1
alpha, beta-unsaturated aldehydes 1710-1685 cm-1
Another band attributed to amines is observed in the region 910665 cm-1. This strong, broad band is due to NH wag and observed
only for primary and secondary amines.
