Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) Plates

The rapid, efficient, low-cost technique for cannabinoid identification and mobile phase method development

TLC has been used to identify cannabinoids for many years. It has proven itself as a reproducible, simple, and low-cost method to identify cannabinoids and more recently, as an efficient, time-saving method to develop the optimal solvent system choice for other cannabis chromatographic separations.

Additionally, preparative TLC can be used to isolate and collect larger fractions, without requiring more expensive and involved flash, column, or HPLC purification methods.
