Abstract
The efficiency of silver ion and reversed-phase thin layer chromatography in the analysis of triacylglycerols is discussed in this paper. The experimental conditions that allowed for the conversion of these techniques into full-scale quantitative analytical methods are presented and details of the respective protocols are given. Examples are presented that demonstrate the achievements of thin-layer chromatography in elucidating the triacylglycerol structure of natural and modified lipid samples.
