Description
Ninhydrin spray solution is a ready-to-use dyeing agent formulated for thin-layer chromatography (TLC) and HPTLC workflows. Supplied in a convenient 100 ml glass pack, it supports visualisation steps commonly required when separating and detecting analytes on TLC plates in analytical and research laboratories. The solution has a density of 0,82 g/cm³, a flash point of 12 °C and a boiling point of 78 °C, physical data that help laboratories plan safe handling and solvent-compatible chromatography procedures. As a dedicated spray reagent for TLC dyeing, it fits established chromatography application ranges where ninhydrin-based detection is applied after plate development. This preparation from manufacturer Carl ROTH is offered as a practical glass-bottle format suited to routine bench use in chromatography suites. Laboratories working in applications, chromatography and thin-layer chromatography can integrate the spray solution into standard staining sequences without additional formulation steps. Clear physical parameters support documentation alongside other TLC dyeing agents used in method development and quality-control environments.

Questions about Ninhydrin spray solution, for TLC, 100 ml, glass
What is this article?
Ninhydrin spray solution, for TLC, 100 ml, glass is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in TLC & HPTLC plates, inside TLC, in Chromatography equipment.
A TLC plate is a backing, glass, aluminium or plastic, coated with silica or alumina of a stated thickness. HPTLC uses a finer particle and a thinner layer. Indicator plates fluoresce so a dark spot shows under UV. Plate size and layer thickness are the specification.
Thin-layer chromatography runs a liquid up a plate coated with a sorbent. The compounds move different distances and are seen as spots. HPTLC is the same method with a finer layer. The plate, the solvent mixture and the chamber saturation decide the result. It is the quick look before, or beside, a column method. The substances are on PubChem, named by IUPAC.
