Thin Layer Chromatography Products & Reviews

Coupling TLC plates with mass spectrometry (TLC-MS) is a new field of high interest in planar chromatography. One particular advantage of TLC-MS is the flexibility it offers in the choice of mobile phases for separations. In comparison, HPLC-MS coupling does not allow the use of certain mobile phases, such as inorganic buffers.

The basis for quality and reproducibility of the analysis

The key to reproducible results by development under standardized conditions

High-end imaging and documentation system for white light and UV fluorescence detection

Application of up to 75 samples as bands onto HPTLC glass plates (20 x 10 cm).

The visionCATS software organizes the workflow of the HPTLC analysis, controls the CAMAG instruments, and manages data evaluation.

The TLC-MS Interface 2 enables users to directly analyze zones from TLC and HPTLC plates by mass spectrometry. A substance confirmation can be obtained in less than a minute.

The TLC Scanner 4 is the most advanced workstation for densitometric evaluation of TLC/HPTLC chromatograms and other planar objects.

Over the years, TLC plates have become scientists’ best friend for quick, simple, versatile and inexpensive analysis for separation & identification of chemicals. Applications range from reaction monitoring to sample preparation, and include compound purity evaluation, optimization of chromatographic conditions, quantitative analysis and much more. Because no plate is universal for all possible applications, SiliCycle has bee…

Our classical silica TLC plates are based on a combination of our proven silica gel 60 and the addition of a unique polymeric binder resulting in a very adherent and hard surface that will not crack or blister and even allow writing with a pensil on the surface without risk to damage the layer.

Chromato-Vue® Viewing Cabinets from UVP provide a darkroom environment for viewing materials.   

Chamber designed to separate analytes using optimized parameters (activation and preconditioning of the HPTLC glass plate (20 x 10 cm) before, conditioning during, and drying after development).

The AR-2000 radio-TLC Imaging Scanner has become the industry ‘Gold Standard’ in the detection of radiolabeled compounds in TLC plates…and also in the purity analysis of [18F] FDG Bioscan’s AR-2000 system provides direct digital counting of all radioisotopes, including high-energy positron emitters and low energy betas--such as tritium (3H)--without the need to exchange detectors. AR-2000’s design guarantees quantitative accur…

The Plate Express™ is a push-button TLC plate reader for results in <30 seconds. The system provides a simple, automated means of obtaining mass spectra directly from TLC plates, combined with Advion Interchim Scientific’s expression® compact mass spectrometer (CMS) creating a technique known as TLC/CMS.

Instant Thin Layer Chromatography Medium (iTLC) is a binderless, glass microfiber chromatography paper impregnated with a silica gel (SG). It is a porous, slightly acidic paper that provides excellent resolution.

Automated spraying device for reagent transfer onto TLC/HPTLC plates.

Manufactured with a durable, extruded-design metal housing and scratch resistant powder paint.   

Derivatization is often used to visualize specific substance classes after separation on HPTLC glass plates (20 x 10 cm). Due to its unique and patented “micro droplet” spraying technology, the fully-automated HPTLC PRO Module DERIVATIZATION ensures homogeneity and reproducibility in applying derivatization reagents.
