METHOD A
Thin-layer chromatography (2.2.27).
Test solution. Unless otherwise prescribed, dissolve about 20 mg (1 drop) of the fatty oil in 3 mL of methylene
chloride R.
Reference solution. Dissolve about 20 mg (1 drop) of maize oil R in 3 mL of methylene chloride R.
Plate: a suitable octadecylsilyl silica gel for high performance thin-layer chromatography as the coating
substance.
Mobile phase:
– mobile phase A: ether R;
– mobile phase B: methylene chloride R, glacial acetic acid R, acetone R (20:40:50 V/V/V).
Application: 1 µL.
Development: twice over a path of 0.5 cm with mobile phase A, then twice over a path of 8 cm with mobile
phase B.
Drying: in air.
Detection: spray with a 100 g/L solution of phosphomolybdic acid R in ethanol (96 per cent) R. Heat the plate at
120 °C for about 3 min and examine in daylight.
The chromatogram obtained typically shows spots comparable to those in Figure 2.3.2.-1.

METHOD B
Thin-layer chromatography (2.2.27).
Test solution. Unless otherwise prescribed, dissolve about 20 mg (1 drop) of the fatty oil in 3 mL of methylene
chloride R.
Reference solution. Dissolve about 20 mg (1 drop) of maize oil R in 3 mL of methylene chloride R.
Plate: a suitable octadecylsilyl silica gel for high performance thin-layer chromatography as the coating
substance.
Mobile phase: methylene chloride R, glacial acetic acid R, acetone R (20:40:50 V/V/V).
Application: 1 µL as bands of 8 mm. A suitable automated apparatus may be used.
Development: over a path of 7 cm.
Drying: in air.
Detection: treat with a 100 g/L solution of phosphomolybdic acid R in ethanol (96 per cent) R. Heat the plate at
120 °C for 3 min and examine in daylight.
The chromatogram obtained typically shows zones comparable to those in Figure 2.3.2.-2.
