Twin Trough Chambers offer several ways to specifically affect the TLC/HPTLC separation in order to improve it.
This is a classical developing tank for Thin-Layer Chromatography. Compared to a Flat Bottom Chamber less solvent is needed. A Twin-Trough-Chamber reduces disposal problems and allows preconditioning of the plate with any solvent and for any duration. For preconditioning or saturation the trough opposite to the plate is filled with developing solvent. The use of a saturation pad is recommended for a fast, homogeneous and reproducible chamber saturation process.
