      A newly developed assay for the quantitative determination of antimicrobial (anticyanobacterial) activity of both hydrophilic and lipophilic test compounds without any restriction
      R. VOLK (Department of Pharmaceutical Biology, Pharmaceutical Institute, University of Kiel, Kiel, Gutenbergstrabe 76, 24118 Kiel, Germany, volk@pharmazie.uni-kiel.de)

      Microbiol. Res. 163, 161-167 (2008). Test solutions containing 0.25 to 64 µg of norharmane, quinine, and tetracycline (as bases and hydrochloride salts) were applied as 10 mm bands on silica gel plates. After coating the plate with a concentrated suspension of the living cyanobacterial test organism (spraying or dipping), it was kept moist in a TLC chamber at 27 ºC for 1 to 2 days under continuous illumination (25 - 30 µmol photon/m2s). Cytotoxic concentrations of a test compound resulted in an easily recognizable regional decolourisation of the test organism.

      J. Liq. Chromatogr. Relat. Technol. 33, 880-893 (2010). TLC of 6 carboxamide fungicides and 11 phenylbenzamide derivatives on silica gel and aluminium oxide impregnated by overnight predevelopment in n-hexane - paraffin oil 19:1 with mixtures of methanol - water, acetonitrile - water, tetrahydrofurane - water, and acetone - water with the concentration of organic modifier varying in steps of 5 %. Detection under UV light. The RMO and b values related to the molecular lipophilicity and to the specific hydrophobic surface area (b) of the solutes were calculated separately for each RP-TLC system and for each analyte. The correlations between the physicochemical parameters measured were calculated by linear regression analysis.

      J. AOAC Int. 93, 1748-1756 (2010). TLC of 35 pesticides on silica gel with ethyl acetate - n-heptane 2:3 in a horizontal chamber. Quantitative determination by absorbance measurement in the range of 200 to 360 nm using a DAD densitometer. The identity of the analytes was confirmed by UV spectra comparison of samples and standards. LOD and LOQ were 230 and 700 ng/zone for clofentazine and 160 and 490 ng/zone for chlorfenvinphos. These two pesticides were detected with the highest frequency in water samples.
