      Phaeocystis sp clone 677-3-a tropical marine plank tonic prymuesiophyte with fucoxanthin and 19'-acyloxyfucoxanthins as chemosystematic carotenoid markers
      T. BJORULAND*, R.L. GUILLARD, S. LIAAEN-JENSEN, (*Organic Chemistry Laboratories, Norwegian Institute of Technology, Univ. of Trondheim, N-7034 Trondheim, Norway)

      Biochemical Systematics and Ecology 16, 445-452 (1988). TLC of carotenes and xanthophylls on silica, silica - calcium carbonate 2:1 and silica - kieselguhr - calcium hydroxide - magnesium oxide 14:16:9:9 with 1, 1, 1-trichlorethane - methanol 23:2, hexan - dimethylketone - isopropanol 141:56:3, hexane - isobutylmethylketone 25:1 and hexane - dimethylketone - isopropanol 137:60:3.

      Instability of plant carotenoids to separation by multiple development thin layer chromatography
      M.J. CIKALO, S.K. POOLE, C.F. POOLE* (*Dept. of Chem., Wayne State Univ., Detroit, MI 48202, USA)

      J. Planar Chromatogr. 5, 200-204 (1992). TLC of red bell pepper extract and ß-carotene on silica with ethyl acetate - dichloromethane - hexane 24:56:20 (single development); and a variety of solvent combinations (multiple development); scanning at 450 nm (absorbance). The results show a general instability of carotenoids under conditions typically employed in TLC. Rigorous exclusion of oxygen and light would prevent the alteration of carotenoids, however, not particularly easy to achieve in practice. The use of layers impregnated with antioxidant is one possible solution. Great caution should be exercised when reviewing data TLC for the identification and quantification of carotenoids from plant material.

      Chemotaxonomic survey of anthraquinones and preanthraquinones in roots of Aloe species
      B.E. VAN WYK*, A. YENESEW, E. DAGNE, (Dept. of Botany, Rand Afrikaans Univ., P.O. Box 524, Johannesburg, South Africa)

      Biochemical Systematics and Ecology 23, 267-275 (1995). TLC of anthraquinones on silica with chloroform - petrol ether 1:1, chloroform - ethyl acetate 1:1 and benzene - petrol ether - ethyl acetate 1:2:1. Visualization under UV 254 and 366 nm.

Quantitative determination by densitometric absorbance measurement at 450 nm. The hRf values of lutein in tea, mulberry, and cassava leaf were 19, 22, and 19 and corresponded to lutein standard.

      J. Chromatogr. A 1572, 137-144 (2018). Development of a method for the analysis of anthocyanes within the foodstuffs of plant origin by TLC on RP-18 phase (which ensures mixed-mode retention mechanism with the localized adsorption on the non-bonded silanols) with acetic acid as the mobile phase component, using two anthocyanins (cyanin and keracyanin) and two anthocyanidins (pelargonidin and delphinidin) as phytochemical standards. By triple development, distinct and symmetrically shaped chromatographic zones were obtained. Further analysis of the products of hydrolytic degradation of the test anthocyanins by MS. Identification of the hydrolytically split fractions by using the p-aminobenzoic acid reagent. Investigation of the calibration curves for cyanin, keracyanin, pelargonidin and delphinidin, and the respective LOD and LOQ values.
