      Lactic acid enantiomers
      L. CECCHI, P. MALASPINA, (Cent. per la Studio Technol., Bromatol. e Microbiol. del Latte, CNR, Via Celoria 2, 20122 Milano, Italy)

      Anal. Biochem. 192, 219-221 (1991). TLC of D- and L-lactic acid enantiomers on Cu(II)-impregnated silica with dioxane - water 9:1. Confirmation of the separation by enzymatic tests. The separation is suitable for radiochemical measurements. The method is useful for rapid control of the radiochemical stability of both D- and L-forms of lactic acid.

      Visualizing agents for aromatic carboxylic acids in TLC
      W. WARDAS*, A. PYKA, M. JEDRZEJCZAK, (Silesian Acad. of Med., Fac. of Pharm., 4, Jagiellonska Street, Poland)

      J. Planar Chromatogr. 8, 148-151 (1995). Description of the evaluation of 18 new visualizing agents for the detection of aromatic amines on a) silica, b) a mixture of silica and kieselguhr G with benzene - methanol - acetic acid 45:8:4, and c) polyamide with acetone - ethanol 4:1. For the separation on a) the best visualization results were obtained with bromocresol green, bromothymol blue, sodium hydroxide, thymol blue, and methyl red; for the separation on b) best results were obtained with thymolphthalein. The visualization effects on c) were not as good as on a) and b). The utility of any particular visualizing agent depends on the type of chromatographic support used. The composition and handling of the visualization reagents are given.
