      CLB Chemie in Labor und Biotechnik 47, 262-263 (1994). HPTLC screening of carcinogenic amines in textiles on silica with dichloromethane - acetonitrile 5:1. Derivatization by diazotation and coupling with N-(1-naphthyl)-ethylenediammonium dichloride. Visual evaluation (pink to blue zones on a pale background). For confirmation of positive results a 15 step AMD gradient on silica from 80% dichloromethane - acetone 1:1 and 20% hexane to 20% dichloromethane - acetone 1:1 and 80% hexane follows. Alternative chromatography on silica with diisopropyl ether - pentane - diethyl amine 12:8:1. Quantification by densitometry (absorbance) at 200, 230, 280 and 360 nm (multi-wavelength-scan).
