The rapid analysis of neutral and polar marine lipids using double-development HPTLC and scanning densitometry

A method is described for the separation by high-performance thin-layer chromatography (HPTLC) of marine lipids on one plate using two developments in succession, one for polar lipids and one for neutral lipids. 14 lipid classes can be separated by the solvent system employed. Quantitation of the se...

Description
Summary:A method is described for the separation by high-performance thin-layer chromatography (HPTLC) of marine lipids on one plate using two developments in succession, one for polar lipids and one for neutral lipids. 14 lipid classes can be separated by the solvent system employed. Quantitation of the separated lipid classes can be achieved using scanning densitiometry. The method can be applied to lipids extracted from marine organisms including the complex polar lipids derived from phytoplankton and fish neural tissue.
