In a nutshell

TLC equipment for qualitative analysis

TLC is a reliable and cost-effective method for separating and identifying components in complex samples, making it a cornerstone of qualitative analysis across industries such as TCM, herbal drugs, pharmaceuticals, food, and environmental science.

CAMAG provides specialized TLC tools for qualitative analysis, designed to optimize every stage of the process.

By integrating CAMAG’s TLC tools for qualitative analysis into your laboratory workflows, you can achieve efficient, accurate, and reliable chromatographic results.

  • Precise and reproducible results
  • Manual or semi-automatic sample application
  • High-quality development chambers
  • Easy-to-use equipment
CAMAG® Linomat 5

CAMAG® Linomat 5
With the Linomat 5 samples are sprayed onto TLC/HPTLC plates in the form of bands with nitrogen or compressed air. Application is automatic, only changing the syringe (filling, inserting and rinsing) is manual. The Linomat 5 is suitable for small sample throughput.
  • Semi-automatic application
  • Application of spots or bands
  • Data input through visionCATS software or keypad
CAMAG NANOMAT 4

CAMAG® Nanomat 4
The Nanomat 4 is a device for contact transfer application using capillaries. The actual sample dosage is performed with a disposable capillary pipette, which is precisely guided, thus ensuring that the chromatogram can be documented and evaluated automatically according to a programmed pattern. The Nanomat 4 is suitable for any plate format up to 20 x 20 cm.
  • Manual sample application
  • Application of spots by contact transfer
  • Precise positioning to apply a defined pattern
CAMAG SMARTCUT

CAMAG® smartCut
The smartCut allows cutting of TLC and HPTLC glass plates in defined pieces of any format. The sensitive layer is not destroyed and smooth edges are the result.
  • Cuts glass plates with a thickness up to 3 mm
  • Easy on the sensitive layer
  • Prevents offcuts and thus saves money
HPTLC Plates

TLC Plates
  • Pre-coated TLC plates on a support of glass or aluminum
  • Layer thickness 200 or 250 µm
  • Available in the formats 10 x 20 cm or 20 x 20 cm
CAMAG TEST DYE MIXTURES

Test Dye Mixtures
Test dye mixtures are useful for functional checks on individual steps in the TLC/HPTLC procedure and for studying the influence of specific parameters.
multipurpose-spotting-guide_800x800

Multipurpose Spotting Guide
The Multipurpose Spotting Guide is used for setting up chromatograms on conventional 20 x 20 cm layers.
disposable-glass-capillaries_800x800

Disposable Glass Capillaries
Designed for manual sample application of 0.5, 1, 2, 5 or 10 μL and packed in color coded vials, the Disposable Glass Capillaries are hand-held and can be positioned with the Multipurpose Spotting Guide.

CAMAG® Twin Trough Chamber
Twin Trough Chambers offer several ways to specifically affect the TLC/HPTLC separation in order to improve it.
  • Glass tank with two troughs for manual development

  • Steel or glass lid
camag-flat-bottom-chamber_800x800

CAMAG® Flat Bottom Chamber
The Flat Bottom Chambers permits the development of the plate under conditions of partial or complete saturation of the gas phase with solvent vapors. The degree of layer pre-saturation cannot be controlled unless additional accessories are used.
  • Glass tank with flat bottom for manual development
  • Available in the formats 20 x 20 cm and 10 x 10 cm
  • Steel or glass lid

CAMAG® Horizontal Developing Chamber
In the Horizontal Developing Chambers, plates can be developed in sandwich as well as in unsaturated and saturated chamber configuration. The chamber is suitable for all kinds of solvents.
  • Chamber for horizontal development
  • Development from both plate sides possible to double the number of samples
  • Low solvent consumption
camag-smartalert_800x800

CAMAG® smartAlert
The smartALERT is used for dependable monitoring of TLC/HPTLC plate development in a vertical glass developing chamber.
  • Enables that the chromatography is stopped at the set migration distance
  • Gives acoustic and visual notice when the development is finished
  • Compatible with glass chambers and glass plates at the formats 20 x 20 cm, 20 x 10 cm, 10 x 10 cm
camag-hptlc-vario-system_800x800

CAMAG® Vario System
