      An optical CCD camera integrated with a secondary ion mass spectrometer for analysis of planar chromatograms
      S.J. DOHERTY, K.L. BUSH*, (*Dept. of Chem. Indiana Univ., Bloomington, IN 47405, USA)

      J. Planar Chromatogr. 2, 149-151 (1989). The design of an integrated CCD camera unit which is interchangeable with a modular SIMS mass spectrometer detection system is described, to measure both optical data and mass spectral data within the same planar coordinates.

      New simple method of documentation of TLC plates
      J.K. ROZYLO, R. SIEMBIDA, A. JAMROZEK-MANKO, (M. Curie-Sklodowska Univ., Fac. of Chem., M. Curie-Sklodowska Sq. 3, 20-031 Lublin, Poland)

      Proc. 9th Internat. Symp. Instr. Chromatogr., Interlaken, April 9.-11., 313-319 (1997). Description of documentation of TLC chromatograms using simple computer hardware. The use of a thermoprinter enables obtaining an accurate color image of a TLC plate which allows later semi-quantitative determinations.

      (Photography of thin-layer chromatograms in the UV light) (German)
      E. HAHN-DEINSTROP, (Heumann Pharma, Abt. Entwicklungsanalytik, Heideloffstr. 18-20)

      Chromatographia (Suppl.) 28, 29-31 (1989). Description of a procedure of photographing thin-layer plates in UV 254 and 366 nm. Achievement of professionally accurate documents of TL chromatograms by using commercially available single-lens reflex cameras, selected negative films, an approved UV-filterset and the pertinent experienced shutter speed.

      Depth profiling of TLC plates by photoacoustic spectroscopy
      I. VOVK*, M. FRANKO, J. GIBKES, M. PROSEK, D. BICANIC, (*Nat. Inst. of Chem., Hajdrihova 19, 1000 Ljubljana, Slovenia)

      J. Planar Chromatogr. 10, 258-262 (1997). Photoacoustic spectroscopy (PAS) was applied to investigate the in-depth distribution of compounds inside the sorbent on a TLC plate. The PAS was also used to obtain unknown values of thermal diffusivity for investigated TLC plates which are essential for the determination of thermal diffusion lengths and layer thickness that are probed at a certain modulation frequency of the laser excitation beam. The PAS results revealed nonuniform concentration distribution of compounds inside the sorbent which arise mainly from the secondary chromatography inside the sorbent during the process of drying. Also published in Proc. 9th Internat. Symp. Instr. Chromatogr., Interlaken, April 9.-11., 353-363 (1997).

      Photographic documentation of thin layer chromatograms
      E. HAHN-DEINSTROP, (Heumann Pharma, Heideloffstr. 18-28, D-W-8500 Nürnberg 1, FRG)

      Proc. 6th Int. Symp. Instrum. Planar Chromatogr., (Interlaken 1991), Inst. Chromatogr., Bad Dürkheim, FRG, 133-135 (1991). A standard procedure is presented to take photos from TLC chromatograms in visible as well as in UV-light of 245 and 366 nm. Technical data (camera, lens, filter, film) are given.

      The design and operation of a novel device for collecting fractions from TLC plates for biological and spectroscopic analysis
      P. SKETT, (SmithKline Beecham Pharmaceuticals, New Frontiers Science Park (North), Third Avenue, Harlow, Essex, CM19 5AW, UK)

      J. Planar Chromatogr. 10, 263-266 (1997). Description of a novel, automated device for collecting fractions from TLC plates. The adsorbent is removed by scraping and then transferred by suction into empty solid-phase extraction (SPE) cartridges. The position of tracks and bands on the plate are defined by importing data from a scanning densitometer. The operator can select the bands to be collected in each SPE tube. After automatic processing, solvent extraction can be used to retrieve the analytes from the silica in the cartridges.

      Quantitative evaluation of 2D chromatograms with a CCD camera
      M. PETROVIC*, M. KASTELAN-MACAN, S. BABIC, (*Lab. of Anal. Chem., Fac. of Chem. Eng. and Techn., Marulivec trg 19, Zagreb, Croatia)

      J. Planar Chromatogr. 11, 353-356 (1998). A mixture of ten pesticides - MCPA, atrazine, propham, chloropham, ofurace, triadimefon, biteranol A, biteranol B, tetramethrin, and a-cypermethrin - has been separated by two-dimensional development on cyano HPTLC plates with a polar mobile phase (methanol - water 3:2) in the first direction and a nonpolar mobile phase (hexane - ether 1:1) in second dimension. Chromatograms were recorded with a sensitive color CCD camera and evaluated with a software. Two quantification modes were compared - scanning of the whole plate and scanning of manually defined bent tracks. The precision of video-densitometric quantitation of the 2D chromatogram, expressed as the repeatability of image capturing and track setting, was determined.
