Introduction to Chromatography 01
What is Chromatography? The term chromatography is derived from Greek, chroma meaning, “color,” and graphene meaning, “to write.” Chromatography is a process for separating components of a mixture. To get the process started, the mixture is dissolved in a substance called the mobile phase, which carries it through a second substance called the stationary phase.

Terms related to Chromatography Stationary Phase : substance that stays fixed inside the column Mobile phase : Solvent moving through column Eluent: fluid entering the column. Eluate: fluid exiting the column Analyte: mixture whose individual components have to be separated and analyzed.

Applications of chromatography The chromatographic techniques is used for separation of amino acids, proteins and carbohydrates. Used for analysis of drugs, hormones, vitamins. Helpful for qualitative and quantitative analysis of complex mixtures. Useful for determination of molecular weight of proteins.

Thin Layer Chromatography
INTRODUCTION TLC is one of the simplest, fastest, easiest and least expensive of several chromatographic techniques. Separation or identification of mixtures of components by using finely divided adsorbent liquid/solid spread over a glass plate and liquid as mobile phase. TLC is a form of liquid chromatography consisting of : A mobile phase (developing solvent). A stationary phase (a glass slide coated with a layer of silica) Separation of adsorbed substances by mobile phase
Principle The separation principle of the TLC procedure is based on the given compound’s relative affinity towards the mobile and stationary phase. The mobile phase moves over the stationary phase surface. During this the compounds that are more attracted towards stationary phase secure their positions at lower levels while others move towards higher level resulting in separation.
MATERIALS REQUIRED TO PERFORM TLC:- Glass Slide/Plate Watch glass / Jar cover Stationary Phase (Silica Gel SiO2) Mobile Phase Oven Developing Chamber Storage facility for prepared plates.
EXPERIMENTAL PROCEDURE TLC plate preparation Activation of TLC plate Spotting the TLC plate Development of plate Visualize the spots.
TLC PLATE PREPARATION TLC plates are prepared by mixing the adsorbent (stationary phase) such as silica gel with water to from a slurry. This slurry is spread uniformly on the glass slide creating a layer of uniform thickness. The thickness of the adsorbent layer is typically around 0.5 – 2.0 mm.
Activation of TLC Plate Plate is kept for drying in oven at 100 deg Celsius for 30 mins. This step is called activation of plate. By doing this surface area of adsorbent increases. TLC PLATE
SPOTTING THE TLC PLATE Take the prepared TLC slide and draw a line with pencil near the bottom of plate. (2cm above) Spot the plate on the marked line using capillary tube In a jar containing the solvent insert the plate vertically, the spot should not be immersed in the solvent. Cover the jar and the solvent will begin to rise up. Remove the plate before the solvent hits the top of plate. APPLY SAMPLE HERE
Solvent front Separation of components VISUALIZATION (On application of visualizing reagent)
Rf value (Retention factor) It is defined as the ratio of distance travelled by the compound mixtures to the distance travelled by the solvent front. Rf= distance travelled by compound distance travelled by solvent front
Rf value (Retention factor) It is defined as the ratio of distance travelled by the compound mixtures to the distance travelled by the solvent front. The Rf value is always less than one. Rf= distance travelled by compound distance travelled by solvent front
Advantages of TLC Separation is sharper in TLC. TLC is much more rapid. Non volatile compounds can be separated. It is more accurate. The components of complex mixtures easily separate.
Fields of application of TLC Biomedical use Pharmacy Food industry 30% 18% 25% 12% Cosmetics
Mark two straight lines on the activated TLC plate. Spot the amino acids samples. Place the TLC plate in the jar with appropriate solvent. Allow the solvent to reach the top line. Dry the TLC plate and apply the visualizing reagent. Look for different colored spots and calculate their Rf value. SEPARATION OF AMINO ACIDS BY TLC
The ninhydrin reaction is used to detect the presence of amino acids. Amino acids contain a free amino and carboxyl group which reacts together with ninhydrin to produce a characteristic blue color (or occasionally pale yellow). In this reaction first an amino group is attached to the first or alpha carbon of the amino acid’s carbon chain and then the nitrogen atom of the amino group reacts with ninhydrin to give a blue-purple product known as Ruhemann’s purple. Some amino acids (e.g. proline, secondary amine) give yellow-orange colour . SEPARATION OF AMINO ACIDS BY TLC
