The new TLC Atlas Vol 3 is a sequel to the volumes 1 and 3, published in 2009. It was organized and sponsored by Chinese Pharmacopoeia Commission, and executed by Shanghai R&D Center for Standardization of Chinese Medicines. Nikyang Enterprise Ltd. participated in this project providing technical support and parts of TLC instrument for the atlas compiling.

This volume is a bilingual edition in Chinese and English. Besides including TLC/HPTLC methods for the 109 most common Chinese herbal medicines, this atlas contains illustrations of the (HP)TLC chromatograms, performed by at least 3-4 analysts, according to the Pharmacopoeial standards. It is definitely a good source of methods, if you need to identify Traditional Chinese Medicines (TCM) drugs.

We believe that with our joint efforts, HPTLC will help more people and more effectively.
