J. Liquid Chromatogr. 6, 109-122 (1983). TLC of 24 amino acids on stannic tungstate with a) butanol (saturated with water)- acetic acid 3:1, b) acetone - formic acid-water 2:2:1. Detection with 0.2 % ninhydrin in butanol.

Merck Spectrum 1989 18-19. HPTLC of D-tryptophan and L-tryptophan on „chiral“ silica (converted with C-18 silane and impregnated with copper salt and the „chiral selector“) with methanol – water acetone 50:50:30. Detection by spraying with ninhydrin followed by heating at 120°C for 5 min. Quantification by densitometry at 510 nm.

J. Chromatogr. B 668, 1-11 (1995). Identification of two proteins, which are bound to Jacalin, by SDS-PAGE. Discussion of the retention and some features of the proteins. It was shown that Jacalin also binds several proteolytic enzymes which remain to be identified.

J. Planar Chromatogr. 20, 173-177 (2007). TLC of seven amino acids (alanine, asparagine, cysteine, leucine, phenylalanine, serine, threonine) on microcrystalline cellulose with butanol - glacial acetic acid - water 60:19:21. Detection by spraying with 3 % ethanolic ninhydrin solution and heating. The performance of this mobile phase was confirmed experimentally. Optimization by use of the experimental design software packages Design-Expert 6 and Statistica.

J. Planar Chromatogr. 23, 260-264 (2010). TLC of 15 amino acids on silica gel and alumina (with or without impregnation) with micellar solutions of cetrimide and cetylpyridiniun chloride and aqueous solutions of dextrose with chamber saturation for 10 min. A TLC system comprising of silica gel impregnated with micellar solution of cetrimide (5.0 mM) as stationary phase and 40 % aqueous solution of dextrose as mobile phase was best suitable for the separation of amino acids. Detection by spraying with 0.3 % ninhydrin solution in acetone and heating for 15-20 min at 60 °C.

J. Liq. Chromatogr. Relat. Technol. 37, 2197-2205 (2014). HPTLC of L-lysine (1), L-threonine (2), L-valine (3), L-isoleucine (4), and L-tryptophan (5) on silica gel with 1-butanol - glacial acetic acid - water 2:1:1. Detection by spraying with ninhydrin reagent, followed by heating at 85 °C for 5 min. Quantitative determination by absorbance measurement at 254 nm. The hRF values for (1) to (5) were 21, 45, 57, 64 and 70, respectively. The LOD and LOQ were 20 and 36 ng/zone for (1), 40 and 51 ng/zone for (2), 37 and 40 ng/zone for (3), 10 and 12 ng/zone for (4) and 28 and 30 ng/zone for (5), respectively.

Proc. Intern. Symposium on TLC with special Emphasis on OPLC, Szeged, 19-20 (1984). OPLC (OPTLC) of L-arginine, monomethylol-arginine, dimethylol-arginine, trimethylol-arginine on ion exchange silica sheets with a solution of 50 g citric acid, 30 g sodium hydroxide, 7 ml conc. HCl and 450 ml water. Detection with a mixture of 0.2 g ninhydrin, 80 ml methanol, 20 ml acetic acid and 0.05 g cupric sulfate.

V. Danube Symposium on Chromatography, Yalta, November 11 -16, 1985. Retention behavior of tri-, di-, monomethyl-arginine, arginine, formyllysine, lysine on silica of different provenience with water containing 0.05, 0.1, 0.25 and 0.5 M NaCl.
