Description
Summary:“Avirin”, or “Avicel”, a microcyrstalline form of cellulose, has been with success in this laboratory for thin-layer chromatography. The material is employed without a binder and has, in this laboratory, essentially completely displaced the papergram because its speed, quality of separation, and the ease with which preparative plates may be run. In all cases tried it has been found that the papergram solvent systems and spray reagents are directly transferable to the new system, a finding which opens up the vast papergram literature to this type of thin-layer chromatography. By all comparisons, where both systems can be used, the method has proved superior, for technical and economic reasons, to that employing silica gel.
