You Searched For: TLC Sorbents

TLC sorbents are used as stationary phases in chromatography procedures involving thin layer chromatography plates. These standardized substances absorb liquids or gases for reliable biological microanalysis separations. While versatile silica gel is the dominantly used stationary phase, cellulose, polymeric ion exchange, impregnated silica gel, and chiral phase are also offered. Selecting based on relative chemical properties, the correct TLC sorbent may include a fluorescent indicator to accommodate ultra-violet ranges or binders for additional stability.
