Abstract

Two dimensional thin layer chromatography on polyamide sheets is a useful method for identification of PTH-amino acids which have very close Rf-values. The solvent systems described here are particularly effective and have an edge over other solvent systems used for the separation of PTH-amino acids. The solvent systems provide a clear separation of all PTH-amono acids except lle / Leu in a relatively short time.
