      Study of the lipophilic character of a series of ß-carbolines
      G.L. BIAGI, M.C. PIETROGRANDE, A.M. BARBARO, M.C. GUERRA, F.G. CANTELLI (Inst. Farmacol., Univ. Bologna, 40126 Bologna, Italy)

      J. Chromatogr. 469, 121-126 (1989). Study of the lipophilic character of a series of ß-carbolines by reversed-phase TLC. Comparison of the Rm values with those obtained by HPTLC. Discussion of the effect of pH on the Rm values. Good linear relationship between Rm values and the classical log p values obtained with an octanol - water system.

      Classification: 2a

      High-performance thin-layer chromatography and ultraviolet behaviour of flavone aglycones with unsubstituted B rings
      F.A. TOMAS-BARBERAN*, E. INIESTA-SANMARTIN, F. FERRERES, F. TOMAS-LORENTE, (*Lab. de Fitoquimica, C.E.B.A.S. (CSIC), Apartado 195, E-30080 Murcia, Spain)

      Phytochemical Analysis 1, 44-47 (1990). HPTLC of 17 different flavone aglycones with unsubstituted B rings on silica with chloroform or petrol ether (40-60°C) – ethyl acetate 1:1. Detection under UV 360 and 254 nm. Correlations between structural features, Rf values and elution order have been established. In addition, characteristic fluorescent colors under UV 360 nm depend only on the substitution pattern on the A ring and are useful for identification purposes.

      Classification: 2c, 8a

      The characterization of dyes in textiles from archaeological excavations
      P. WALTON, G.W. TAYLOR

      Chromatography and Analysis 5-7 (1991). TLC of dye-stuffs from textile fragments found at UK archaeological sites. Comparison with HPLC. HPLC is regarded as useful for further investigations, TLC is better as a rapid screening procedure at low cost.

      Classification: 30

      (Separation of the alkaloids in Fourstamen stephania, Stephania tetrandra, by thin-layer chromatography
      D. CAI*, (Cai Dingguo), M. GU ( Gu Mingjuan), (*Naval Res. Cent. Pharm., Shanghai 200083, P.R. China)

      J. Chinese Herb. Med. (Zhongcaoyao) 24, 339-340 (1993). TLC of tetrandrine, fangchinoline and cyclanoline on silica with chloroform - acetone 1:1. Detection by spraying with Dragendorff's reagent.

Detection by immersion into a phosphomolybdic acid solution (10%) and heating at 105 °C for 10 min. Quantification by densitometry at 750 nm (absorbance). Comparison of HPTLC with HPLC. The author considers HPLC 100fold more expensive than HPTLC.

      Classification: 11b
