I need some help. I am doing a zoology assignment on the separation of steroid hormones by thin layer chromatography. I have searched high and low but I can't find what I 'm looking for in my text books.
The hormones examined were estradiol, estrone, progesterone and cortisone.
The solvent system was benezene/ethyl acetate/acetone (6:1:1)
I need to know the role of polarity, adsorption and molecular weight in the separations,
whether the separations would be the same with all organic solvents
and what would happen if water were the solvent
Can anyone help me?!!
