Abstract
SINCE the technique of paper partition chromatography is generally inapplicable to fat-soluble substances, we have investigated the use of alumina impregnated filter paper for this purpose. We have found that such paper run in simple organic solvents forms, in effect, an adsorption chromatogram on a micro scale, and combines the advantages of alumina chromatography with the elegance of paper chromatography.
