      J. Planar Chromatogr. 33, 11-18 (2020). HPTLC of lutein in dietary supplements on silica gel with n-heptane – ethyl acetate 9:1. The part of the TLC chromatogram containing the zone visible in day light was cut off, followed by developing in the opposite direction with n-heptane – acetone – ethyl acetate 11:5:4. Quantitative determination by absorbance measurement at 450 nm. Linearity was between 90 and 500 ng/zone for lutein. Intermediate precisions were below 2 % (n=9).

      Thin-layer chromatography of green leaves extracts - zinc migrates into pheophytin on TLC silica plates with fluorescence indicator (F254)
      Birte Johanne SJURSNES, Lise KVITTINGEN*, R. SCHMID (*The Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU), 7491 Trondheim, Norway, lise.kvittingen@ntnu.no)

      J. Planar Chromatogr. 29, 480-483 (2016). 2D-TLC of pheophytins in green leaves on silica gel with hexane ‒ acetone ‒ ethanol 35:14:1. An analogous transverse elution was undertaken after 5 min and 1, 3, 7, and 9 days. The paper suggests that the green colored spots on the silica gel layer with fluorescence indicator are due to the incorporation of Zn2+ in the compounds.
