      Phosphatidylcholine dimers can be easily misinterpreted as cardiolipins in complex lipid mixtures
      M. EIBISCH, S. ZELLMER, R. GEBHARDT, R. SUB, B. FUCHS, J. SCHILLER* (*University of Leipzig, Faculty of Medicine, Institute of Medical Physics and Biophysics, Härtelstraße 16-18, 04107 Leipzig, Germany, juergen.schiller@medizin.uni-leipzig.de)

      Rapid Commun. Mass Spectrom. 25, 2619–2626 (2011). HPTLC of cardiolipins in hepatocyte sample on silica gel with chloroform - ethanol - water - triethanolamine 30:35:7:35. Qualitative determination by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS). Caution is required if cardiolipin is analyzed directly from the total lipid extract because phospholipid dimers may be interpreted as cardiolipins.

      (Study of sulfur fine particles as the stationary phase for thin-layer chromatography/Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (TLC/FTIR) hyphenated technique) (Chinese)
      X. FAN (Fan Xiaokun), Y. JIANG (Jiang Ye), Z. SONG (Song Zengfu), Y. WEI (Wei Yongju)* (*Coll. of Chem. & Materials Sci., Hebei Norm. Univ., Hebei, Shijiazhuang 050024, China)

      Chem. J. of Chinese Univ. 35 (4), 741-745 (2014). TLC is a rapid, simple, efficient, economic and widely used method with great advantages but some limitations in the detection of unknown groups. IR is a universal detection technique with advantages in the detection of colorless, non fluorescent substances. For successful application of TLC/FTIR the selection of the proper stationary phase is important. In this study sulfur fine particles were successfully employed as the coating for narrow band plates. Sulfur fine particles with the average size of 500 nm were produced by reaction of sodium thiosulfate with hydrochloric acid and characterized by XRS. Narrow band plates were coated by precipitation/evaporation technique. TLC of the mixture of rhodamine B and gentian violet on narrow band plates with tetrahydrofuran – methanol – ammonia 16:2:1 with chamber saturation for 10 min. TLC of the mixture of rhodamine B and bromophenol blue on narrow band plates with ethyl acetate – methanol – ammonia 16:1:3 with chamber saturation for 10 min. Both systems achieve complete separation. In situ detection of the separated zones by microscopic reflection infrared spectroscopy. The resulting spectra of the separated zones of rhodamine B, gentian violet and bromophenol blue matched those of the corresponding standards. There were no interfering absorption peaks except for the absorption peak of CO in the mid infrared region. The layer had a considerable ability for separation of mixed samples, therefore, the new type of stationary phase can meet the requirements for analyzing some mixtures by TLC/FTIR hyphenated technique.

      Direct coupling of HPTLC with MALDI-TOF MS for qualitative detection of flavonoids on phytochemical fingerprints
      Ivana KROSLAKOVA, Simona PEDRUSSIO, Evelyn WOLFRAM* (*Zurich University of Applied Sciences, Institute of Chemistry and Biotechnology, Phytopharmacy and Natural Products Research Group, Einsiedlerstrasse 31, 8820 Wädenswil, Switzerland, evelyn.wolfram@zhaw.ch)

      Phytochem. Anal. 27, 222-228 (2016). HPTLC fingerprinting of luteolin, quercetin and their corresponding glycosidic derivatives luteolin-7-O-glucoside and rutin (quercetin-3-O-rutinoside) in Soldanella alpina on silica gel with formic acid – water – ethyl methyl ketone – ethyl acetate 1:1:3:5. A solution of 2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid in 70 % methanol (100 mg/mL) was used as a matrix for HPTLC-MALDI-TOF MS analysis.

      Rev. Bras. Farmacogn. 27, 13-39 (2017). HPTLC fingerprint of Stevia rebaudiana roots on silica gel with n-hexane – ethyl acetate 19:1. Detection by spraying with 4 % vanillin sulfuric acid reagent, followed by heating at 150 °C for 2–4 min. Chromatographic profiling by TLC and GC–MS analysis showed that roots of plants grown in vitro have the ability to produce secondary metabolites, which can be similar to those produced by plants in nature, but in a sustainable way.
