CAMAG is introducing a new software option

CAMAG is introducing a new software option as part of the well proven winCATS planar chromatography manager. An important characteristic and advantage of thin layer chromatography (TLC/HPTLC) is its visual nature, TLC/HPTLC is the only chromatographic method offering the option of presenting the result as an image.

CAMAG’s new software option Image Comparison Viewer allows to compare tracks of individual samples or groups of samples from different TLC/HPTLC plates directly with each other on the same screen. A list with the identification of the tracks is automatically generated from the existing winCATS analysis files. This new software feature also allows to create archives containing comparison data of different substances or batches.

Image Comparison Viewer is a useful tool for identification and detection of adulteration in the quality control of raw material and finished product as well as in the screening for marker substances and contaminations in forensic, food and environmental analysis.
