    advanced technique for separating and analyzing mixture components

    High-Performance Thin-Layer Chromatography (HPTLC) is an advanced form of thin-layer chromatography (TLC) used for separating and analyzing compounds in a mixture. It involves applying a small sample to a plate coated with a thin layer of adsorbent material, then using a solvent to move the sample components up the plate. HPTLC offers higher resolution, sensitivity, and reproducibility compared to traditional TLC, making it valuable for applications in pharmaceuticals, forensics, and environmental analysis.
