Two dimensional two phase thin layer chromatography plate and method

摘要

A thin layer chromatography plate is disclosed for two-dimensional chromatography of a sample, in which the plate has a first surface portion including a first composition suitable to perform thin layer partition chromatography in a first direction on the plate and a second surface portion including a second composition suitable to perform thin layer chromatography in a second direction on the plate, wherein the second composition is selected from the group consisting of (1) a composition, different from the first composition, suitable to perform thin layer partition chromatography and (2) a composition suitable to perform adsorptive thin layer partition chromatography. A method of using such a plate is also disclosed.
