Publisher's Synopsis
The Biennial Symposia on Thin Layer Chromatography have, in their short history, come to be regarded as the leading forum for major advances in thin layer chromatographic theory and practice. This book brings together new techniques and applications in thin layer chromatography as reported at the Third Biennial Symposium.;Twenty-eight chapters survey the continued growth of TLC, particularly high performance and reversed phase chromatography. Noteworthy too are results from investigations by petroleum chemists - the first time such studies have been presented at the Symposium. These methods will be of special interest to researchers working in other areas of chromatographic analysis, since computerized results are presented.
