7. INTRODUCTION THIN LAYER of Adsorbent ( silica, alumin) CHROMATOGRAPHY – study of light / colour. TLC used for - a physical method of separation in which the contents to be separated are distributed between two phases, one of which is stationary phase while the other ( mobile phase) moves in a definite direction. 01-10-2021 THIN LAYER CHROMATOGRAPHY 7

8. HISTORY Chromatography method is first discovered by Tswett, a Russian botanist, in 1906 for the separation of coloured substances into individual components. 01-10-2021 THIN LAYER CHROMATOGRAPHY 8

9. PRINCIPLE OF TLC TLC is an adsorption chromatography which involves separation of the substances of a mixture over a thin layer of adsorbent which is supported on a glass plate or other supporting medium under the influence of mobile phase. 01-10-2021 THIN LAYER CHROMATOGRAPHY 9

11. Adsorbent is thinly coated onto a suitable support – Glass plate/ polyster/ aluminu sheet Glass plate – rigid, transparent and chemically resistant to mobile phase. Glass capillaries – to mark the sample on TLC plate Oven – used to activate the layers after coating (Silica gel plates become activated when all the water has been removed by drying in an oven) Spraying agents – aluminum chloride for flavonoids. Carbon tetrachloride – organophosphorus pesticides. Fume hood – while preparing samples (toxins, pesticides, poison etc) – being adsorbed through skin or inhaled, which may cause allergies. UV combinet – UV light wave length 254 / 366nm. 01-10-2021 THIN LAYER CHROMATOGRAPHY 11

12. PROCEDURE Select suitable TLC plate.( if we prepare manually – it should be air dried for 20 mints. Then placed in oven at 100degree Celsius for 30 mints in order to activate it.) The solvent should be added to at least 30 mints before the chromatogram is developed to saturate the atmosphere with solvent vapors. The sample should be prepared. With the help of capillary pippete apply the sample over the TLC plate as a spotting. The sample and standard should be applied at the line with sufficient distance. If solution is less concentrated then apply for several times. Allow them to dry out for a short time between each application. Number the spotting from left to right and record the substance that have been applied. 01-10-2021 THIN LAYER CHROMATOGRAPHY 12

13. CONTI….. TLC chamber to be filled with mobile phase and cover with glass plate. The coated plate is placed layer side down on the TLC chamber Ensure that the level of solvent should be below the level of spots applied. The set up must not be disturbed in order to obtain effective result. When chromatogram has been developed then the plate is air dried. Spraying reagent – for the compounds not characterized by the possession of colour, strong absorption to UV have to be rendered visible by special detection reagents applied to the layer by means of a spray. The chromatogram should be examined under UV light. The substances present appear as dark areas. Calculate Rf value of sample and standard. If values are same then we qualitatively confirm the presence of compound. 01-10-2021 THIN LAYER CHROMATOGRAPHY 13

17. INTERPRETATION OF TESTS Rf - RETENTION FACTORS Rf = distance analyte traveled distance solvent traveled This is used to compare with standard value. 01-10-2021 THIN LAYER CHROMATOGRAPHY 17

18. EXAMPLE SRUNGHATAKA – DRIED SEED T L C of alcoholic extract of the drug on silica gel ‘G’ plate using n- Butanol: Acetic acid: Water (4:1:5)v/v shows under U V (366mm) one fluorescent zone at Rf.0.60(blue). On spraying with 5% methanolic – sulphuric acid reagent and heating the plate for about ten minutes at Rf. 105 degree Celsius three spots appear at Rf 0.30 (grey), 0.43(grey) and 0.93(violet). 01-10-2021 THIN LAYER CHROMATOGRAPHY 18

19. when tlc is used Non volatile / low volatile substance. The substance are strongly/medium/non polar . ( adsorbent is the polar compound and solvent is non polar ) If solvent is non polar, it moves rapidly on polar media( stationary phase) and vice versa. The substance cannot be detected by the method of LC or GC 01-10-2021 THIN LAYER CHROMATOGRAPHY 19

20. Where tlc is used PHARMACEUTICALS AND DRUG - determination of the conc of active ingredients, preservatives in drugs. CLINICAL CHEMISTRY,FORENSIC CHEMISTRY AND BIOCHEMISTRY – determination of active substances and their metabolites in biological matrices, diagnosis of metabolic disorders such as PKU( phenylketonuria), cystinuria. COSMETOLOGY – dye raw materials and end products, preservatives, fatty acids, constituents of perfumes. FOOD ANALYSIS – Determination of pesticide and fungicides in drinking water, residues in vegetables, salad, meat etc… banned additives etc Analysis of inorganic substances – ions(metals) Environmental Analysis – Ground water analysis, determination of pollutants from abandoned armaments in soil and surface waters, decomposition products from azo dyes used in textiles. Pesticides, barbiturates, narcotics, tranquilizers. 01-10-2021 THIN LAYER CHROMATOGRAPHY 20

21. FORENSIC SCIENCE Analysis of barbiturates – barbital, phenobarbital and secobarbital Analysis of tranquilizers – diazepam, chloropromazine Analysis of narcotics – morphine, cocaine, heroin etc Analysis of pesticides – organophosphorus, carbamates, pyrethroids etc.. 01-10-2021 THIN LAYER CHROMATOGRAPHY 21
