      Pharmazie 61, 747-750 (2006). TLC of phenazopyridine and 4 major metabolites (i. a. p-methoxyaniline) on silica gel with chloroform - methanol mixtures. Also irradiation of phenazopyridine adsorbed on silica gel. The drug was dissolved in methanol and mixed with aqueous slurry of silica gel. TLC plates were prepared and wet plate photolyzed as such with a mercury lamp. The plate appeared as yellow chromatogram, which turned dark yellow within 15 min. The progress of reaction was monitored by Co-TLC of a withdrawn scratch with the starting drug.

      Progress in automated multiple development
      C.F. POOLE*, M.T. BELAY, (*Dept. of Chem., Wayne State Univ., Detroit, MI 48202, USA)

      J. Planar Chromatogr. 4, 345-359 (1991). Description of the evolution of automated multiple development from manual multiple development through programmed multiple development and discussion of the general role of solvent strength gradients and solvent selectivity emphasizing their application to AMD. The large number of experimental parameters encountered in method development is recognized as one of the main current weaknesses of AMD. The method has, however, a number of attractive features which will ensure continuing interest in the technique.
