Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) Plates

Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) plates are essential for separating and analysing compounds in both chemistry and biochemistry. Primarily used for identifying substances and checking the purity of samples, TLC plates offer a straightforward, efficient method for these tasks.

Silica TLC plates are among the most common, featuring a layer of high-quality silica gel that provides excellent separation of components. This silica gel for TLC plates is finely prepared to ensure consistent and reliable results. HPTLC plates (High-Performance Thin Layer Chromatography plates) take this a step further, offering higher resolution and faster analysis times.

These plates are available in various sizes and formats to suit different applications, from small-scale tests to larger analytical needs. Options include standard and UV-activated plates, which are compatible with UV lamps for TLC plates and help visualize compounds that are otherwise invisible to the naked eye. Whether you are conducting routine checks or detailed analysis, TLC plates provide a versatile and reliable solution.



We also provide laboratory culture plates alongside our TLC plates.
