New methods of quantitation in thin-layer chromatography: tubular thin-layer chromatography [TTLC]

Techniques used in the quantitative evaluation of thin-layer chromatograms are compared. The quantitation of tubular thin-layer chromatograms by means of vapor-phase detectors is emphasized, and typical examples of the use of this method are outlined. Applications of tubular thin-layer chromatography (TTLC) in the quantitative analysis of fish liver oils are described.
