Evaluation of various biological activities of natural compounds by TLC/HPTLC

Over the last years, thin layer chromatography (TLC) has become an increasingly important tool in the analysis of natural compounds, being used not only as a simple method of separation, identification, and quantitative determination of natural constituents, but also as a method for evaluating the potential applications of the separated compounds, different bioassays being compatible with TLC. This is due to the TLC advantages, of which could be...
