      Qualitative and quantitative analysis by hyphenated (HP)TLC-FTIR technique
      Claudia CIMPOIU (Faculty of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, „Babes-Bolyai“ University, 11 Arany Janos, 400028 Cluj-Napoca, Romania; ccimpoiu@chem.ubbcluj.ro)

      J. Liq. Chromatogr. Relat. Technol. 28, 1203-1213 (2005). The (HP)TLC-FTIR coupled method has been widely used for qualitative and quantitative analysis. The potential of this method is demonstrated by its application in various fields of analysis, such as drug analysis, forensic analysis, food analysis, environmental analysis, biological analysis etc. In recent years, much effort has been devoted to the coupling of TLC and HPTLC with spectrometric methods because of the robustness and simplicity of use of (HP)TLC and the need for detection techniques that provide identification and determination of sample constituents. IR as one of the spectroscopic methods that have been coupled with (HP)TLC has a high potential for the elucidation of molecular structures. The review contains introduction, principles, instrumentation and data presentation, qualitative analysis, quantitative analysis, and conclusions.

      Thin-Layer Chromatographic analysis of carotenoids in plant and animal samples
      A. ZEB*, M. MURKOVIC (*Institute for Biochemistry, Graz University of Technology, Graz, Austria; Alamzeb01@yahoo.com)

      J. Planar Chromatogr. 23, 94-103 (2010). This review describes available data on analysis of carotenoids by TLC. Petroleum ether, acetone, and hexane are the major mobile phases used for TLC. This technique was found to have the potential to be the first choice for analysis of carotenoids in biological samples. The uses of other, orthogonal chromatographic methods, for example HPLC, MS, scanning densitometry, and image analysis with TLC can enable precise analysis of carotenoids. The review consists of the following parts: 1. Introduction; 1.1 Function of carotenoids; 1.2 Occurrence of carotenoids; 2. Analysis of carotenoids; 2.1 Sampling; 2.2 Sample preparation; 2.3 Extraction of carotenoids; 2.4 Saponification; 2.5 Chromatographic analysis; 3. Thin-layer chromatographic analysis of carotenoids; 3.1 TLC of carotenoids from microbial and animal sources; 3.2 TLC of carotenoids from plant sources; 3.3 Normal-phase TLC analysis of carotenoids; 3.4 Reversed-phase TLC analysis of carotenoids; 3.5 TLC analysis of carotenoids with scanning densitometry; 4. Advantages of TLC in carotenoid analysis; 5. Conclusion and future studies. 134 References.
