Popis: Rapid separation of p -hydroxybenzoic acid from methyl p -hydroxybenzoate, ethyl p -hydroxybenzoate, propyl p -hydroxybenzoate, benzoic acid, sodium benzoate, sorbic acid, potassium sorbate, salicylic acid, butylated hydroxyanisole, and butylated hydroxytoluene has been achieved by TLC on the inorganic ion-exchanger stannic silicate with n -hexane-ethyl methyl ketone-acetic acid, 8:2:0.3 ( v/v ), as mobile phase. The development distance was 1 cm and the development time 28 min. Quantitative analysis of the separated p -hydroxybenzoic acid was performed by scanning densitometry at 270 nm. The limits of detection (LOD) and quantitation (LOQ) for p -hydroxybenzoic acid were 0.05 and 0.51 μg per zone, respectively.
