Planar chromatography postchromatographic derivatization

As an offline technique the TLC process consists of several individual steps. Traditionally, instruments for each step are controlled by separate more or less sophisticated software. winCATS-Planar Chromatography Manager (CAMAG, Switzerland) is the first integrated software that can communicate with all instruments involved in the TLC process. A win-CATS method file can include information about the stationary phase, samples and their components, standards and their preparation, application parameters, prechromatographic derivatization, development conditions, postchromatographic derivatization, all parameters of densitometric and spectral evaluation, and details of electronic documentation using a...
