HYDROGEN FLAME LUMINOSITY ANALYZER FOR THIN-LAYER CHROMATOGRAPH, AND HYDROGEN FLAME LUMINOSITY ANALYZING METHOD

摘要

A hydrogen-flame photometric analyzer for a thin-layer chromatograph, comprising (1) a hydrogen burner capable of forming a hydrogen flame; (2) a moving means capable of moving a thin-layer chromatography element and/or the hydrogen burner at a predetermined speed so that analytes separated on a chromatography carrier of the thin-layer chromatography element may be sequentially burned by the hydrogen flame formed by the hydrogen burner; (3) a spectroscopic means capable of resolving a light emitted from the hydrogen flame; and (4) a light-analyzing means capable of analyzing an intensity of a light resolved by the spectroscopic means is disclosed. A method for analyzing a hydrogen-flame photometry for a thin-layer chromatograph, comprising the steps of: sequentially burning analytes separated on a chromatography carrier of a thin-layer chromatography element by a hydrogen flame formed by a hydrogen burner, by moving the thin-layer chromatography element and/or the hydrogen burner at a predetermined speed; and analyzing an intensity of a light emitted from the hydrogen flame, at a particular wavelength, is also disclosed. According to the hydrogen-flame photometric analyzer and the method for analyzing a hydrogen-flame photometry, hetero-elements can be stably, accurately, and specifically analyzed. <IMAGE>
