General description

50 Glass plates 20 x 10 cm
HPTLC plates deliver fast and quantitative analysis of complex samples for manual or automated use. Our HPTLC silica plates work three times faster than conventional TLC plates – and they are more sensitive. The particle sizes range in HPTLC is between 4-8 µm, which creates a smoother surface and a higher separation power than TLC plates.

Application

Glass HPTLC Silica gel 60 F₂₅₄ plates. Silica gel HPTLC plates size 20 x 10 cm, 50 sheets.

Articles

In this article we present several HPTLC applications and analytical standards for ginsenosides.

HPTLC is an efficient method to determine Steviol Glycosides content in Stevia using our HPTLC plates and reference materials, including a new introduced Stevia extract reference material.

High-Performance Thin-Layer chromatography (HPTLC) quantification of methylglyoxal (MGO) in complex and matrix rich manuka honey offering quick sample preparation, high-matrix tolerance, and high-throughput.

Protocols

HPTLC was used to analyze caffeine in coffee. Filtration of coffee through a PTFE syringe filter was the only sample preparation. Quantitation was conducted with a TLC scanner.

Powdered black pepper was chosen as example for dietary supplements, being a source for pierine. It is tested according to the current United States Pharmacopeia (USP) guidelines using HPTLC and HPLC.

In the present study we demonstrate compliance of silica gel 60 F254 HPTLC plates with USP requirements, and how HPTLC plates are suitable for the Sildenafil citrate-Limit of Imidazole test.

Boiled coffee samples were extracted and filtered with a 0.45 μm Millex syringe filter.
