Description
POLYGRAM CEL 400 UV254 pre-coated TLC foils combine a cellulose CEL 400 layer with a UV254 fluorescent indicator on 20 x 20 cm sheets for thin-layer chromatography. The UV254 additive enables non-destructive visualisation of UV-active compounds under short-wave ultraviolet light, supporting rapid spot detection without chemical staining when compounds quench fluorescence. Supplied as ready-to-use foils in packs of 25 pieces, they fit standard TLC chambers and imaging systems. These POLYGRAM foils from manufacturer Macherey-Nagel are intended for analytical separations on cellulose media where both chromatographic performance and convenient UV detection are required. The fixed 20 x 20 cm format aids method consistency across laboratories in research, quality control and education. Use POLYGRAM CEL 400 UV254 when cellulose TLC with built-in UV254 indication is preferred for routine qualitative or semi-quantitative work, reducing preparation steps while maintaining clear visualisation of separated zones under UV light.
This article is part of TLC & HPTLC plates, in TLC.

Questions about POLYGRAM CEL 400 UV254, 20x20 cm
What is this article?
POLYGRAM CEL 400 UV254, 20x20 cm is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Macherey-Nagel 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.
