      Chromatographic behavior of food additives on thin layers of titanium(IV) silicate ion-exchanger
      V. GHOULIPOUR, S. AMINI, A. HAGHSHENAS, S. WAQIF-HUSAIN* (*Chemistry Department, Faculty of Science, Science and Research Branch, Islamic Azad University, P. O. Box 14515-775, Poonak-Hesarak, Teheran, Iran; syedwaqifhusain@yahoo.com)

      J. Planar Chromatogr. 23, 250-254 (2010). TLC of 30 food additives (aldehydes, organic acids, esters and alcohols, and various sodium salts) on titanium(IV)silicate ion-exchanger with 10 different mobile phases: e. g. methanol, heptane - diethylether 4:1, aqueous ammonia - methanol - ethyl acetate 1:3:6, methanol - aqueous ammonia 9:1, methanol - ethanol 17:3, 0.5 M ammonium sulfate solution, 0.25 M, 0.5 M and 0.1 M potassium bromide solution, and phosphate buffer pH 2.5 in a twin-trough chamber without chamber saturation. Detection by spraying with 1 % iron chloride solution, 0.5 % potassium permanganate and 3 % barium chloride solution 1:1, 1 % ninhydrin in ethanol, 2 % phosphomolybdic acid in ethanol, and 5 % potassium dichromate in concentrated sulfuric acid. The study shows that the quality of separation depends to a large extent on the mobile phase, and selectivity is achieved by varying the composition of the mobile phase.

Visualization by spraying with a solution of ferric chloride and potassium ferricyanide. Compounds with antioxidative activity were visualized after spraying with a solution of b-carotene and linoleic acid and observing the delay in bleaching of the b-carotene.

      J. Planar Chromatogr. 23, 339-342 (2010). HPTLC of saccharin in foodstuffs (e. g. cola drinks, lemon juices, betel nut powder, mouth fresheners, ice candy, and tabletop sweeteners) on silica gel with chloroform - methanol - acetic acid 64:35:1 or acetone - isopropanol - acetic acid 60:39:1. Quantitative determination by absorbance measurement at 230 nm. Linearity was between 250 - 1250 ng/µL. The limit of detection and quantification for saccharin were 40 and 130 ng, respectively.
