The word chromatography has been derived from

greek word `Chroma' meaning color and `graphein'

meaning writing.

PAPER CHROMATOGRAPHY

--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---

Paper chromatography is a partition chromatography.
It is technique to resolve a mixture of substances by

continuous distribution between the stationary and mobile

phase.

The mobile phase, which is the solvent, has tendency to carry

the substance with it while the stationary phase, which is

hydrated cellulose fibres have a tendency to retard the
movement of substances relatively as a result of various
interactive forces between it and the substance.
Reagents
1. Solvent

--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---

N-Butanol,Glacial acetic acid and water are mixed in

the ratio of 4:1:5

2. Visualizing Agent

Ninhydrin solution

3. Standard Amino Acid solution and unknown sample

Procedure

--- Content provided by⁠ FirstRanker.com ---

A circular whatmann number 1 filter paper is taken and from the

centre of circular paper a radius of 1 cm is drawn and

application points are marked.

--- Content provided by‌ FirstRanker.com ---

A hole is made in the centre portion with the help of compass.

Equal volume of standard solution along with sample is applied

--- Content provided by‍ FirstRanker.com ---

on the marked spot using capillary tube

Two petri plate of equal circumference are taken so that each

plate fit over one another

--- Content provided by⁠ FirstRanker.com ---

3/4th of one of the petri plate is filled with the solvent

Now circular paper is placed on the petri plate such that wick dips

within the solvent.

The other petri plate is used to cover, without disturbing the paper.

The run is continued till the solvent reaches the rim of the petridish.

--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---

Solvent front is marked and paper is removed from the solvent and

dried

--- Content provided by‌ FirstRanker.com ---

Spray the paper with ninhydrin solution and dry it with the help of hair

drier.

Calculate the retardation factor value

like phenylketonuria, maple syrup urine disease.

To analyze different compounds in drugs.

It is also used in testing of antibiotics
